<p>I am tryign to add teachers and invite them so they are able to do the letters of rec. online.
however, I click on school forms, and there's supposed to be a recommenders buttton, but there's not! What am I doing wrong? Do i need to fill out the rest of the application first? help!</p>
<p>Most likely, your school uses Naviance. The instructions on that page should address this by telling you to consult with your counselor.</p>
<p>yes, I am using naviance. gawd my counselor’s horrible she didn’t answer me anything.</p>
<p>My sons school is having problems right now because they did not renew Naviance this year(budget cuts - sigh).</p>
<p>Your school still should be able to use the common application without Naviance. Naviance has an agreement with Common app so that Common app knows who is supposed to be using Naviance. If you school does not keep its subscription up to date you will not be able to invite teachers. If your shcool does not want to use Naviance any more(or can’t afford it), than they need to contact Naviance and Common app so they can turn the Naviance off.</p>
<p>I had the same exact problem in the beginning but then I realized that i hadn’t filled out parts of my “Academics” supplement… so maybe u haven’t put down ur school name, address and counselor?</p>
<p>Make sure you’ve listed your school’s CEEB code in the academics area. After you’ve done that, the system will know whether your school is Naviance or not, and the information you see in the School Forms area is different for Naviance vs non-Naviance Schools.</p>
