LORs for OSUCOM

I don't have a pre-med committee to write a letter so I'm using individual professors to meet the LOR requirement (my advisors just hold/send letters for us in Arizona--suck). I'm wondering whether anyone else in this position knows if the generic LOR (their selling me in a 'vote for this student' letter format on professor's letterhead, etc.) is acceptable OR if I need to send each of the professors OSU's 'pre-professional evaluation' form from the secondary app. This might be a stupid question and I should probably just do it...it's just going to be hard to track down all the profs again. Any advice?

Only one of my LOR writers used the form (he also sent a regular letter). Shouldn't be a problem, but you can always call admissions and ask them.

From the OSU-COM website:

Step 3: Letters of Recommendation

Letters should be sent directly to OSU Center for Health Sciences from the evaluator. The student may choose between the two tracks below:

Track 1

* One letter from a college or university pre-professional/pre-med committee
* One letter from an osteopathic physician (D.O.)

Track 2

* Three letters preferably from faculty (2 science and 1 non-science faculty)
* One letter from an osteopathic physician (D.O.)

1. D.O. Evaluation Letter of Recommendation #
2. Pre-professional Evaluation Letter of Recommendation #
3. Applicants may submit Letter of Recommendation or Evaluation forms or both.
4. Please send Letters of Recommendation and/or Evaluation forms to:
