Hey guys,
I have 5 LoR but only 2 are science faculty and no non-science faculty (I do have one from an advisor but I'm assuming this means a non-science professor). I looked into SDN and some people say they emailed the schools asking for a waiver and they were given them but I'm kind of confused how it works. Can I ask now before schools get my app? I don't want to spend money submitting the primary if I don't even have the appropriate letters. Do I have to give a reason for not obtaining the letter? Do I have to include something in the app saying I have a waiver?
Thank you!
