I was wondering if the letters of recommendation from professors from an Ivy League institution would help admission?Answered
I am a junior in high school, applying early decision to an ivy league in the fall. I took a summer course at that Ivy League over the summer before my junior year and made connections with two professors who offered me letters of recommendation. Would those help my admissions chances?

I agree with @crsgo0422. However, I think it would really boost your application to send one of the letters as an extra recommendation letter (3rd letter)!

I think it would be great if the one writing a recommendation letter for you is someone who has a strong academic background but it would not be so valuable if the professors didn't know you too well.
