Comments on: Ta Da!! http://admissionblog.olin.edu/2007/08/16/ta-da/ A slightly different view of olin college Sat, 6 Sep 2008 05:31:45 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: OlinAdmission http://admissionblog.olin.edu/2007/08/16/ta-da/#comment-35331 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 16:36:21 +0000 http://admissionblog.olin.edu/2007/08/16/ta-da/#comment-35331 Great question, Arille! (and one I'll delve into again later...) I would definitely suggest that you have a teacher from a "formal" classroom setting write your Teacher of Choice recommendation; we are truly interested in getting that perspective from those recommendations. However, please feel free to have your L/I Tech Director write you an additional letter! While we don't want 10 additional recommendations from applicants, an extra letter here or there - especially one that will provide a different perspective than your two classroom teachers - are always appreciated. Hope that clears things up a bit! :) ~ab Great question, Arille! (and one I’ll delve into again later…)

I have been part of a Leadership/Information Technology organization for over 5 years now, and the Director of the program knows me very well, both as a person and academically. Is it possible for me to use him as a source of recommendation, or would I need to use someone else who has taught me in a formal classroom environment? Thanks!
