To add to what @@? said - It would be an indirect recommendation from an alumna who would reach out to the sources listed on your resume/recruitment form and at least verify the information you provided. It's not nearly as useful as a personal rec, but it fulfills our basic requirement. It's a lot of trouble, and we only do that for girls we really love and definitely want to bid, ie only a few, so PNM's without recs can just slip through the cracks. Look, PNM's are on a bell curve for each house - some we know we really want, some we know are definitely not a good fit, but the majority just fit in the middle. So for those middle PNM's, we need to make decisions, and the girl with the rec is going to have a slight edge. She made the effort to get a rec for us. So if you care, you will do all you can to give yourself the best chance.
