According to AMCAS, Larner College of Medicine has received my letters of recommendation, why is this requirement incomplete on your application portal?
There is a temporary delay between the time you submit your secondary and the letters being marked as complete.
How many letters of recommendation do you require and what is the maximum number of letters that I can submit?
We require a committee letter or a letter packet if your college or university provides it. These collective letters count as one letter in AMCAS and meet the entire requirement.
If your school does not have an advisor or committee, you must provide three letters as follows:
- Two letters from professors in the sciences with whom you have taken classes, and
- One letter from a non-science professor with whom you have taken a class.
If you are not able to provide the letters listed above, you may provide three academic or professional letters from people who know you well.
We will review up to six (6) letters of recommendation from you.
