How to Acquire Recommendations from Teachers

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

<p>I'm using the Common Application to apply to about 6 different school, all of which require two Recommendations. I know what two teachers I want to ask, but I've been waiting to ask them because I don't know how to go about it. </p>

<p>Are they allowed to give the recommendation to me so that I can photocopy it and pay the postage for the six copies? Or do I ask them to copy their recs themselves, and then seal them all in envelopes and then give it to me? </p>

<p>I just don't know how this is done. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>No. Either your teachers or your counselor will photocopy them and send them to colleges…but what grade are you in?</p>

<p>I’m applying for a Junior transfer, so I"m a sophomore.</p>

<p>Please tell me that Junior transfers don’t need recs, and that’s why you asked!! haha</p>

<p>" Ma’am/Sir, could you please write a recommendation for me for these and these ruddy colleges,. I would remain ever grateful."…lol…
you just go and “ASK”. Never mind what the teacher says…and whatever she/he says…just say a “thank you” at the end!~!! LOL</p>

<p>Lol ok, sounds good lol. So it seems the best idea is to give them pre-paid envelopes? </p>

<p>I really want to read what they write though! haha</p>
