[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP what school is differentiating between whether a student is entitled to two letters of recommendation vs one? How do they make this decision? Only school I can think of is SJC which has a separate college counseling team for their scholars program. Either way, doesn't seem like a good policy.[/quote]

I've never heard of a parent complain about this at SJC. Had kids go through scholars and non-scholars. None of them had issues getting into college.[/quote]

Did your non-scholars kid get two letters of recommendation? Asking because I have a kid interested in SJC and I don't think they will be eligible for scholars.[/quote]
New policy is that only scholars get 2 unless it is a REQUIREMENT for a school.

Most colleges our kids have applied to want what is required and affirmatively do not want extra LORs. So this doesn’t sound like an issue. [/quote]

Colleges get so many applications. They literally spend minutes on each. If they don’t ask for more than one LOR, don’t give them more than one LOR. [/quote]
