Stupid question...

<p>From an FAQ on the application:</p>

<p>Can I have someone other than a teacher submit a letter of recommendation?
Yes. Northwestern requests at least one teacher recommendation but will accept additional letters of recommendation from people other than teachers.</p>

<p>It says people other than teachers. Does this include students? Some schools, including Dartmouth, allow a peer reccommendation. Does Northwestern?</p>

<p>I don’t believe so…you could always call admissions to double check, but I think it’d be safer to ask a coach/director/employer/advisor instead.</p>

<p>Yeah, you can, as long as you’ve submitted one teacher rec.</p>

<p>I’ve asked a lot of the top colleges the same question (Georgetown, Emory, some Ivies), and all of them have said yes.</p>
