I'm finishing up my application for Ohio State but I'm not sure about letters of recommendation. Does anyone know if they require them or if it's optional? Any advice is appreciated!
For Ohio State University, letters of recommendation are not required for general undergraduate admissions. However, it's essential to double-check the specific requirements for the program or major you're applying to, as some specialized programs may have additional application components, including recommendation letters.
If you want to submit a letter of recommendation to support your application even though it's not required, you can do so. Just ensure that the person who writes the letter can provide meaningful insights about your character, academic abilities, and extracurricular involvement, as it could potentially strengthen your application.
Remember to focus on submitting a strong application with all the required materials and make sure to pay attention to the deadlines. Good luck with your application!
