LOR Confusion (Kinesiology)

So for one of my LORs, I am having a bit of trouble with classification. I took Anatomy and Physiology with the professor writing the LOR, but I it was under the kinesiology department. Do schools typically classify these as science?

The definitive answer is perhaps and that is an absolute maybe. It will good enough at most schools, though a few may get picky but in my experience they will contact you for verification/explanation. I have seen that occur with Neuroscience profs under Psych Dept

Most professors writing a letter will note themselves as
John Smith, PhD
Professor of Anatomy and Physiology
Dept of Whatever

I appreciate your response Gonnif. It’s probably best to get a syllabus from the class to highlight what exactly was taught, and use it as a source to verify.

Thanks again.

The letter should state how you know one another and in all likelihood would say, "I got to know OnceUponUhCloud when he was a student in my Anatomy and Physiology course in Fall 2021." That would be enough for me to say this is a science letter.
