<p>I'm on my college applications journey and I noticed that some of my schools require "other" recommenders. I've successfully gotten one recommender's approval and "invited" him to my recommenders list in the Common App. Then I assigned him to Northwestern U (one of the schools requiring an "other" recommender). Have I completed this process correctly? Are there any other tips regarding "other" recommenders? This is my first time dealing with letters of rec outside my school, so any advice would be helpful.</p>
