<p>After I gave him the Common App Counselor "brag packet" stuff more than 1 month ago, my counselor still hasn't finished!</p>
<p>As I have multiple colleges due on January 1st, and as my counselor absolutely REFUSES to work on counselor recs/ the counselor section of the common app during break[which started like 2 days ago], am I screwed?</p>
<p>Or can my counselor just submit the recs after January 1st?
But arn't you unable to submit the supplements+application until after your counselor has finished?

<p>Hmm id say contact the principal or something but now your on break. Try an email?
And contact the admission offices of the college your applying to and ask them</p>
<p>Send your Common App on time. Then call the schools and warn them. I don’t think they’ll hold you responsible for others’ mistakes. That being said, make sure to work out an agreement with your GC once you’re back to school</p>
<p>Yes, you can send your piece even if the counselor hasn’t finished. Go ahead and do your part now. Usually they will take the other pieces even if they are late, but you should make sure to let the head of guidance know what happened (AFTER the counsellor finishes your letters!)</p>
<p>Only your part of application needs to be submitted on time. Colleges will give your GC more time to submit rec letters and transcript. My daughter decided to add few more schools to apply over the break. Her GC told her to go ahead and they would send in her packet to those schools in Jan.</p>
