Academic (college instructors, internship supervisors) and the remaining one (1) recommendation must
be a Professional (Work/Volunteer) Reference. Family friends, clergy, therapist and high school teachers
are not appropriate. Applicants who have been out of school for 2 or more years and cannot ascertain
academic references may substitute other professional recommendations for academic. For any
applicant, if two are not academic recommendations and one is not professional, please include a
statement and email this to sw@lsu.edu with your application explaining the reason for the substitution. It
is strongly recommended that if an internship was part of the degree program and the internship has been
completed at the time of application, a recommendation from the internship supervisor be included as the
professional recommendation. Complete your name, recommendation type and the access information
