<p>If I'm applying to around 16 schools and most use the commonapp, do I have do make my teacher fill out a different evaluation for Yale than she will for Harvard, Cornell, etc? On the Yale website, it is a generic CommonApp form, but are others tailored to the school, like the supplements are?</p>
<p>Also, can I print the teacher evaluation forms out and have them mailed even though the rest of my application will be sent online?</p>
<p>definetly yes to second post.</p>
<p>I have the same question as in your first post..
I'm leaning towards yes because essentially the forms from the common app and other schools are the same....and adcoms understand that teachers/counselors are busy... I heard that even MIT has been known to accept common app teacher recs...</p>
<p>hope that helps</p>
<p>*i meant that NO your teachers don't need to fill out different forms!</p>
<p>thanks annapoof! Anyone else know more about the teacher evaluation forms...are they all the same for the commonapp schools, meaning I only need to give one to a teacher and it can be photocopied along with their letter of rec.?</p>
<p>and does anyone know if any other schools besides Harvard and Yale use this? I can't seem to find it on some college websites...but maybe I'm not looking in the right place...</p>
<p>hang on- I think I overcomplicated your question
Here is what you do:
print out the common app form (located under school forms) and give it to your teachers. they will fill it out and copy for all of your common app schools.
to check which schools are on the common app look on the common app site.
Now, if you have non-common app schools you can also probably get away with using common app forms because adcoms get that teachers don't really have the time to fill out their specific forms. That's why I mentioned MIT.</p>
<p>Hope that clears everything up</p>
<p>thanks...but when I clicked on school forms, it says "No schools officials have been invited yet....and basically that I have to invite them electronically and stuff...can't I just access a pdf of the forms or something?</p>
<p>look inside the CommonApp forums on CC and there's a topic on this already. I have the same problem and I can't find the PDF version either until after I log off and find a "generic copy" that doesn't have my ID number printed on it.</p>
<p>I don't know what to do. It doesn't seem like anybody has a solution to this besides printing the generic PDF out and writing your ID number on it -- but apparently, Stanford doesn't allow you to write on the paper so I'm kinda screwed.</p>
<p>If anybody can help, that'd be nice.</p>
