<p>Unfortunately I'm moving for my final year of HS to another state. I am trying to get letters of recommendation from the teachers I knew in my old HS, but since I'm unfamilliar with the process I would appreciate some help. I want to apply to Harvard, Yale, MIT, Caltech, UC Berkeley, UC Irvine, UCLA, Princeton, Cornell, Stanford. I believe only a few of these accept the common ap. How should I ask my teachers for letters of recommendation? I know I should ask them all to fill out the common ap form. But what about the universities which don't accept the common ap? I probably want to apply online, so how do I get the proper forms that the teachers mail in? The 2006 aps aren't available yet. Any suggestions or clarity anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. I am completely unfamilliar with the application process.</p>
<p>You made the exact same thread before...</p>
<p>BTW, how's that cold fusion goin'?</p>

All the colleges who dont use the Common Application would require recommendations on the school's stationary, so tell your old teachers to write about 5 copies. (thats if u're applying by mail) Your teachers will go nuts if you ask them for 5 copies online (believe me I know)!!! And the UCs may put u in a disadvantage because of their own formula stuff!</p>
<p>And by the way arent u exaggerating about ur little device??</p>
<p>your folks are bastards (pardon) for forcing you to move for your last year of highschool.</p>
<p>I'm not exaggerating. I would, however, prefer not to bring it up in this thread because I'm certain people won't answer this thread's question.</p>
<p>you can mail, e-mail, or call your old teachers, send them the recommendation form for you, and have them mail it to the school</p>
<p>or ask your teachers to mail it directly to you by September, so that you can put it with your application.</p>
