Hey all,
I know this question is a little silly, but I just wanted to ask, because I'm a neurotic premed, just like you.
I've asked the person who taught my History of Dance class for a LOR. I just wanted to make 100% sure: In the case of a letter from a "professor," that means someone who taught you a course, NOT necessarily someone with a doctorate? I ask because this person has the terminal degree in his field (Dance): a MFA. I just don't want to somehow run into a school saying "oh, your non-sci letter doesn't count because an MFA is not a doctorate."
I figure the answer is that this letter is perfectly legit, but again, I'm just checking.
Thanks!
