Hi! I'm getting my application together for UVA, and I'm a bit stressed about the recommendation letters. Can anyone tell me if UVA requires a recommendation from my school counselor, or are teacher recs enough?
Hey there! I understand the anxiety around college applications, but no need to worry鈥攈ere's the scoop! UVA does indeed require one recommendation from your school counselor. The counselor's letter usually provides a broader view of you as a student and individual within your school community. It's complementary to the teacher recommendations that focus more on your academic performance and participation in class. Be sure to request this from your counselor with enough notice so they can write the best possible recommendation for you. In case you're feeling a bit overwhelmed, remember that your counselor is there to support you through this process, so don't hesitate to discuss any concerns you may have with them. Good luck with your UVA application!
