hi guys , I’m planning to submit my second LOR from an NGO I volunteered with, and they don’t have official organization email IDs.
Is it okay if the recommender uses a personal Gmail address? or can it create some problems later ?
You’re asking a great question. Usually you would address this in an optional essay with a one or two sentence comment or the recommender can address it themselves in the letter of recommendation. There’s usually a section that says is there anything else you would like us to know, so I recommend to put in there a quick note that to streamline rational efficiency and to save funds the nonprofit only provides email addresses to full-time employees or something like that.

Traditionally you want to explain this for example in case the person has left the company... just so it doesn’t raise any questions with anyone.

Hello folks, I am applying in R2. As Booth only have a minimum word count for its essays, what is the maximum word count one should aim for? Thanks
I can only speak from my own experience, mine was 850-900. Please take it as a grain of salt
