Letter or Rec?

Published

Hello!

I am applying to a nursing program and currently work at a hospital. The program that I am applying to requires 2 letters of rec. In which I have already selected my old boss/o chem teacher.

Working at the hospital, I have talked to a few nurses. One of charge nurse/house supervisor went to the school that I am apply to. The nurse sees my exitement, and had offer to write me another postive letter of rec.

Should I polietly accept or decline?

Please let me know! I need second opinions!

Thank you!

Take every letter you can get. 2 are required, nothing says you can't have more. The fact that someone OFFERED to write you a letter says a lot for you, and you would be a fool to turn it down, especially from an alumnus.

Take it! They are certainly not going to deny your application for having too many letters of recomendation.

My program didn't even require LOR but i turned in two anyway, one from my old boss(nurse manager of crital care) and my micro teacher! I got in on my first try to a very competitive school and the director did mention them in my interview with her after i was accepted.

Good luck, hope you get in!

A letter one OFFERS to write will probably be better than a letter one was asked to write. So if someone offers, TAKE IT.
