- mbesto 12y agoHi tlb, thanks for your unique perspective! I didn't mean to imply that an actual alumni recommendation in the traditional sense was the norm, akin to perhaps a letter of recommendation for grad school. I admit, my comment "knowing someone" was quite ambiguous, so you probably thought that an official recommendation was what I implied.
