Greetings,
I have been working toward earning my PE license since I graduated college, and recently decided I should start preparing for my application since I believe I have enough experience. However, when doing my research, I found that some sources said I need 3 PE reference, which is different from what I remember. When I read the requirement on NCEES, it doesn't say anywhere that I need a reference from a PE at all, I just need to have someone to vouch for me and verify my experience. This person doesn't necessarily need to be a PE or even my direct supervisor. So, from what I got on the instruction, I don't think I need a PE reference. However, I want to see if anyone in New York got through the application process without a PE reference. After all, I am still worried about my application being rejected, in case the board doesn't consider my experience to be 'legit' if I do not a PE to support my claim. Any advice or experience you share is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
