<p>I mailed in my recommendations and transcript to a college a few days before I submit the application. After I submitted the application, it said I need to complete the school form, but my college adviser said I don't need to since I already mailed my recommendations. So, I want to make sure does the college count the recommendations as the school forms?</p>
<p>School forms include data about the school – which is needed. They are not the same as recommendations. Call the college first – and then approach your college adviser, who, in my opinion is 100% mistaken.</p>
