Can I send everything through the Common App?

Applying to College
1

I am an international applicant and I recently graduated from high school. I don’t have a school counselor, but my school principal already submitted the Common App’s School Report, Fee Waiver, Optional Report, Counselor Recommendation, Midyear Report, and the Final Report. However, I have been reading many threads and visiting each website of the colleges I want to apply to, and they always say that the transcripts can be sent through Parchment or by mail; but, my counselor told me that she uploaded my high school transcripts in the Common App?? Same goes with the school report and recommendations, so I am not sure if Ivy League colleges would still ask for anything else that I have to send by mail?

For example, and I know it sounds unrealistic, but I intend to apply to Harvard, and they say in their website that the transcripts must be returned to their office or can be sent through Parchment.

Is it enough with everything that my counselor sent through the Common App? Or do I have to mail anything extra?

Thank you in advance, and pardon me if it is a simple question :slight_smile:

If transcripts are uploaded on the Common App, you don’t have to send them through mail or any other method. You should be fine.

Thank you so much for your answer! I was so worried since my school counselor went on a vacation recently and I won’t be seeing her until late January.
