In this video, Admissions Counselor Lloyd Tayko outlines the process for requesting and submitting your letters of recommendation for the USC Chan Entry-Level OTD Program. We recommend that your letters of recommendation come from people who know you well - they do not need to be occupational therapists. Please note that while we require 3 letters of recommendation, we recommend that you request 4 just in case one of your references is not able to submit.
