I am thinking about asking 3 teachers for LOR, but for some schools which only want two, can I pick and choose which two teachers send their letters? I want this flexibility because different colleges want different LOR. I will be using the CommonApp, do I have this flexibility with the common App?
anyone
You can assign teachers to a certain school on Common App.
Yes. You can assign different teacher to different school application on CommonApp.
@billcsho , can you explain that please? Our high school doesn’t allow kids to see teacher recs. The teachers submit them to the guidance counselor. I do not recall seeing any place on the common app for my daughter to upload teacher recommendations. How does this work?
@Lindagaf After you invite the teachers to write LOR on commonapp, they will receive a link to upload the letter directly. You are not supposed to see the letter yourself. Once you have the teacher(s) on list, you can assign any of them to the application for each school independently up to the limit allowed even before they submit the letter(s).
