If I apply to two courses at the same university, do I need separate letters of recommendation for each course or can I use the same letter for both?

Yes, you can usually use the same letters of recommendation for both courses at the same university. Admissions committees expect applicants to apply to multiple programs, so a strong letter highlighting your skills and achievements is generally suitable for both.

If the courses are very different in focus, consider having at least one letter tailored to each program for a stronger application. If you need personalized guidance, your Leap counsellor can help you decide the best approach for your situation.
