Can counselor submit recommendation on common app?

<p>I added my counselor as a counselor under the counselor section and a teacher as a recommender under teacher. My teacher submitted his recommendation, but can my counselor submit her recommendation as a counselor? It says mid year report, final report, etc. Can she submit it there or do I have to add her as a teacher or something?</p>

<p>If you “invited” your counselor as your counselor, s/he will log on as a recommender/counselor category. You shouldn’t add him/her as a teacher.</p>

<p>The counselor can add themselves. I did not have to “invite” my guidance counselor to submit the teacher recommendations and their own. The only people I had to “invite” were my teachers. The school has full access to your commonapp.org account. They are the individuals who set it up. </p>

<p>I suggest talking/ emailing the guidance counselor about your concerns. They are supposed to have full access to those college application accounts and have the capabilities to “invite” themselves.</p>
