I need some help with University of Indiana...

Applying to College
1

<p>I've been trying to get some info and forms out of UI Bloomington, but I couldn't find any essay questions or teacher recommendation forms. I've been skipping the personal info section and have been just focusing on essay parts and all.</p>

<p>I even tried to download paper applications, but the year was 2009-2010 (I'll graduate from HS in spring of 2009. I'm applying for Fall 2009), and the application did not have the essay questions or teacher's section.</p>

<p>If anybody could help out, that'll be great. Thanks!</p>

<p>There might not be essay questions? Or they might come on a supplemental application that they’ll send to you after you apply using the first part?</p>

<p>Why don’t you call them and ask?</p>

<p>Many large state schools do not have an essay or teacher recs in their applications. I just looked at the application and you do not need them for Indiana. Why not file online?</p>

<p>On Indiana’s web site, they say that essays are optional. My son didn’t bother to send his, but he didn’t get in , either.</p>

<p>Oh, and I’ve never seen a teacher recommendation form. You just ask your teacher to write a letter for you.</p>

<p>The 2009-10 app is the one to use if you intend to be a freshman beginning Fall semester 2009.</p>

<p>IU does not require essays or teacher recommendations but they may be considered if submitted. Thus, there is no “form” for them. You just do them and send them in.</p>

<p>I “asked” the question about essays on the IU admissions website and this was the response I got:</p>

<p>OP, thanks for asking the question. My D has already applied online and missed the bit an about optional personal statement.</p>
