<p>Hey CCers!</p>
<p>Do the following schools have option recommendation forms? I tried checking their websites and I don't see any. Many of these schools apply to the CommonApp forms- does that mean I can't send an optional rec, say, from my club advisor?</p>
<p>Cornell
Harvard
Johns Hopkins
Princeton (I know they have an optional form)
Yale
MIT
UPenn</p>
<p>I see that Harvard says: While we can make careful evaluations with required recommendations, we are happy to read helpful letters from people directly familiar with applicants' lives outside the classroom. Such letters are not necessary, however, and it is generally advisable to submit no more than two or three.</p>
<p>Is there a form to give my recommender? to my knowledge, the CommonAPP does not offer one</p>
<p>Just send the letter. Someone recommended to me once that I should have teachers write recs and put them in with my transcript, so my counselor just recopies it every time she sends the transcript out.</p>
<p>do i just give the extra recommender an envelope and say "write a letter!"?</p>
<p>I know certain schools have optional rec forms to actually fill out. does this not apply to all the other schools that don't offer them?</p>
