<p>How do I go about getting the common app teacher evaluation form filled? Do I get it filled once each by the teachers I want and then make copies and send them to the schools once I decide which one I want to apply to (don't have a definite idea)? Same goes for the dean thing on common app, do I just get it filled out once or 5-6 times? </p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Also, is it even necessary to do the school forms part of the common app or am I just misreading it? Would I be required to get letters of recommendation if not the forms for schools like top ivies?</p>
<p>You need to fill out the top of the Instructor Evaluation and the College Official’s forms. You give them to the instructors/school official and they will fill them out except for the signature. Then they will make as many copies as needed and sign each one. Then they will put each one into an envelope and sign across the seal to assure that it isn’t tampered with.</p>
<p>By "school forms’ are you talking about the Secondary School Final Report form? If so, yes, that needs to be sent along with an official HS transcript (see the instructions on the form).</p>
<p>I don’t understand your last question.</p>
<p>thanks for the help entomom!</p>
<p>I guess what I meant was do we need two letters of recommendation like hs or are teacher evaluations the equivalent for college? Or, am i reading it wrong and teacher evaluations are optional for schools like uchic or brown?</p>
<p>For transfers, the LORs come from college instructors (profs or TAs), HS teacher LORs are not needed.</p>
<p>Both Y and UChicago require Instructor LORs:</p>
<p>[Brown</a> Admission: Transfer Students](<a href=“Undergraduate Admission | Brown University”>Undergraduate Admission | Brown University)</p>
<p><a href=“https://collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu/apply/applicants/transfer/#eval[/url]”>https://collegeadmissions.uchicago.edu/apply/applicants/transfer/#eval</a></p>
<p>ok, so if I get LORs do I still have to get the teacher evaluation form filled out on commonapp?</p>
<p>Yes, I’m sorry I didn’t mean that you could replace the Instructor Evaluation form, I was using LOR as shorthand, but I can see how it could be misinterpreted.</p>
<p>When filling out the Instructor Evaluation form, your instructor will EITHER print their LOR into the space provided on the form, or they will attach a separated sheet with the LOR. Either way, they use the form, which has other information for them to fill out as well.</p>
<p>okay so the top colleges do require the teacher evaluation form, cause on commonapp it doesn’t say anything definitely. Do you think I should pre-prep envelopes for them (with address and school name) for them–it seems kind of weird ask them to send 5-6? thanks again for all your advice</p>
