touchthesky Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Hey guys, What's the deal with the character/word limit on the referee's title? I can't even include one of my prof's departments in there! LOL it's too long! And what if a referee has two titles? (e.g. dept. chair for two separate departments?) What does one do in this situation? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as whatever you enter reads logically and matches the reference letter, it really does not matter. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
touchthesky Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 LOL YA that's exactly it! It's hillarious, because I can't fit the titles of any of my references. I'm going to have to abbreviate; I've even had to message my references to ask them to write it out LOL Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploughboy Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 In the grand scheme of things, your referee's title on the omsas application means nothing. Just abbreviate it. They'll likely use the full titles in the letters, anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
