<p>Hey guys, i was wondering is it better to use common app or the colleges online application? Im only using 1 school for common app. Some people say that it doesnt matter but is common app simpler and faster? And i wanted to know how long teacher recommendations should be, specifically for private colleges. Thanks guys</p>
<p>If you are only applying to one college, which is not a good thing, I would just go ahead and use their application. Also why do you need to know how long teacher recs should be? You can’t control that.</p>
<p>Im only applying to one college using common app. The other colleges im applying to dont use common app. And my school made us get 3 recommendations each that was about a paragraph long, from 3 different teachers. Teachers can also give us long recommendations which is about a page long.</p>
