Hi everyone,

I’m applying for a program over the summer, and the application fee is coming up in mid-November. The application asks for two letters of recommendation. I’m curious as to whether it’s best to get recommendations from college professors/mentors or from high school teachers. I feel as though because high school teachers knew us for longer, they would be able to do better recs/references, but at the same time, I have changed and grown in the few months I’ve been in college, and I think some of my mentors would be able to better attest to that. Any thoughts?
