Glad to hear you’re applying ED!

We certainly appreciate why you’ve selected the recommendations you have and we also understand that not everyone knows their counselor well but counselors can provide a prospective on you in your high school setting which is important to us.

While we appreciate that students want to put their best foot forward and we encourage them to do so, we’ll receive over 12,500 applications and if everyone sent four letters of recommendation we’d be hard pressed to get our work done in time so we encourage you to limit yourself to three letters.

Keep in mind that we do not take intended major into account when reviewing your application so a recommendation from someone who taught you in that favorite subject isn’t any more important than any other teacher recommendation if that helps.
