Hi!
Currently I am in the process of reapplying to OT programs (mostly, if not all, MOT). This is my second cycle that I am applying to, but applications don't open up for another month or so I believe.
I have re-asked two out of my three past writers of my LORs but am wondering how to more formally re-ask a professor that wrote me a letter last cycle?
Also, I need advice on whether or not I should ask two more professionals for a LOR. The first one is an OT I have been shadowing since last year and I am now working on a project with her. We mostly text to communicate because she never checks her emails, and I don't see her too often. But I don't know if texting to ask is inappropriate.
The second one is the head of the department that I volunteered for at the hospital. This one I am more hesitant about because we didn't talk too much and she doesn't know a ton about me, but I saw her twice per week for six months. Her last email to me she said if I ever need a reference to reach out. But I know a reference and a LOR aren't the same, right?
Any advice? Thanks in advance!
