My high school counselor attended the University that I am applying to. Is there anything she can do besides writing a strong recommendation later to improve my chances. Thanks!!! :-*
No. But remember, this same recommendation is going to be used generically for all the colleges you apply. So her saying to your #1 college, College X: “I’m a graduate of X” will look rather funny when that same recommendation goes to colleges Y and Z. Thus that info won’t be in the letter.
