LOR after change of heart

[jpatlik]

Hello everybody,

Earlier this year, I had two professors write me letters of reference for the Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS). My OGS application was for an MA. I've now changed my path, and want to pursue a Master's of Information Studies. The chance of me applying for an MA is close to zero.

Should I approach the same professors or should I seek out other professors? I'm a bit worried that they'll think I'm unfocused, and a] write a reference letter that says that I'm unfocused, or b] feel used and not write a letter at all. I had a really, really prestigious reference write one of my OGS letters. He's a nice guy, but I don't want to give a bad impression.

Thanks!
