<p>So a few of my recommenders aren't appearing in the "assign recommenders" list for certain schools - like UChicago and UPenn - but not ALL schools. Only some. With UChicago, I had already assigned three recommenders, but two of them just disappeared, and I cannot readd them. The recommenders are the "Manage Recommenders" list, so I know they are still there. It's a glitch.
What do I do? I have emailed the Common App support team multiple times in the last couple days. They have responded asking for the names of the recommenders, and then just left me hanging. Multiple times.
The deadline is really soon...what do I do?</p>
<p>I’m having the same problem, even at schools where I’ve already submitted applications, like, two weeks ago. I got this error: “There was an issue with Recommender Assignment for this college.”</p>
<p>I recommend documenting the issue. Keep copies of your conversations with Common App support. Email a copy of your finalized essays to a parent so that you have the date as proof that the information was ready for submission. Follow whatever instructions that the support team gives you. If the issue isn’t resolved on time, explain the situation to UPenn and UChicago. If they ask for proof, show them the documentation.</p>
<p>Don’t panic, yet. You have another day to resolve this. <a href=“https://twitter.com/commonapp[/url]”>https://twitter.com/commonapp</a></p>
