Hi there, I'm applying for an ivy league master's program and I can only submit two recommendations, but I have three really good references:
- One is a professional reference from my supervisor from my most recent job, I worked with her for four years.
- One is an academic reference from my undergraduate professor at CUNY. She was a professor for one of my honors classes and the advisor to my honors program, so she knew me for two years. I technically don't need to submit an academic reference since I've been working full-time for more than six years now, but I asked her anyway because I heard CUNY might help with the application process.
- The last one is a professional reference from someone who is a board member for one of the university's schools (not the one I'm applying to though). He's very influential but my connection with him is slightly weaker since I only did an internship at his company when I was in high school.
I'm not sure which two to submit- I know they're all going to write good things, but obviously I want to submit the recommendations that will help the most. Any advice on this?
