LOR Requirements

[nemo123]

I just found out that Albert Einstein has specific science LOR requirements. They say that if an applicant is a science major, the second science LOR must be from a professor in a different department than the first science LOR (ie if the first LOR was written by a bio professor, the second one can't be from a bio professoer).

I am a chemistry major, and I am getting a committee LOR. My two science LORs are from bio professors (Lol, don't ask me how that happened). Does anyone know if this is okay (anyone apply to Albert Einstein?) and if any other schools have this kind of requirement?

I feel like a committee letter usually trumps all requirements (i.e., schools have their requirements OR a committee letter). Call the school and find out.

Yeah, it was a little strangely worded. They say that everyone who has a committee at their school should get a committee letter, but after all of that, they have those other LOR requirements... I was just wondering if anyone who applied to Albert Einstein previously had anything to say about this.
