Hi guys! I am a little stressed out because I know who I want to ask for recommendation letters, but I haven’t decided which letters I want to send to which colleges yet. Is there a way I can just invite my recommenders to Common App and they can write one letter, and then I can choose which colleges to send that letter to later? Or do I have to decide before I send the request and request them for specific schools? Thanks in advance
Yes, you can choose which schools each teacher’s recommendation is sent to! No need to request for specific schools.
@stannystu22 Thanks! And also, is it possible to invite a teacher but end up not submitting their recommendation to any schools? I hope it doesn’t come to that because it’s lowkey rude, but it might happen for me.
I believe so. If it hasn’t changed, I think you can assign teachers / recommenders to as many or as few schools as you wish. I’m unsure if the teacher would be aware of whether or not their letter ended up being used.
If one of your teachers has left the school and no longer has access to Naviance (for linking submission with Common App) what’s the best way for the teacher to submit? Or should one query each school?
