<p>So, I have a summer internship in the Lt. Governor's office, and she was insanely nice enough to write me a letter of rec that she wants to send from her office to the schools I will be applying to as soon as possible. I suggested that we wait until I have sent in my common app so that I will at least have some sort of file open for the letter to go into at each school.
However, I have no idea what she needs to do. Is there some type of protocol for this? I know that teachers are supposed to fill out some type of form(ps, how does that work as well if I am applying online...:) ) but what do I do with an extra letter of rec? Can she just send it to the schools with no paperwork to follow... or on the common app will there be some sort of "add another recommender" button where she will have to put in her information? It would be nice if she could skip that and just send the letter, but I am afraid they will disregard that and this is probably going to be one of the more impressive aspects of my application, so I want this noticed. </p>
<p>I am sorry I am so lost! I was really surprised at how quickly she got on top of this since I just asked her last week. I was expecting to have to worry about this in the fall sometime...</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
