counselor recommendation and secondary school report?

Applying to College
1

<p>So i have no idea what the difference between these two are...I have not seen a counselor recommendation form for ANY of the schools I'm applying to, maybe I'm not looking hard enough? So I basically only submitted the secondary school report form (our school has our own, overview of student, not much actual "letters of recommendation").</p>

<p>So i'm just wondering is there a difference, and if there is, are there any counselor recommendation forms for these schools I'm applying to:
UMD - College park
UMBC - Baltimore county
Penn State
UNC - Chapel Hill
Michigan (common app)
Carnegie Mellon (common app)
Boston University (common app)
Purdue
Illinois</p>

<p>THANKS IN ADVANCE.!</p>

<p>On the common app, the school report form is the counselor rec. They are one and the same.</p>

<p>^Thanks. What about for other schools?</p>

<p>Illinois doesn’t have a counselor or teacher LOR. Just have the GCr send the student’s transcript.</p>

<p>Purdue has a counselor form, here’s the link:

<p>Penn State has this on their UG admissions website:</p>

<p>As part of your online application, we will ask you to print out a counselor form. You should take this form to your high school counselor to complete and send to us along with your official high school transcript. </p>

<p>UNC-CH’s counselor form is here:

<p>Don’t know about the others. Good luck!</p>

<p>Uhh…our school has our OWN forms that they submit instead of the schools secondary school report form. So I should be good to go…right?</p>

<p>Usually schools that have their own forms will enclose them along with the school forms. That’s fine.</p>
