Hi!
I finished some college application during ED period and are now working on the rest for RD. However, when I tried to just add the letter of recs which others already submitted for me, I can only add the teachers’ letters, but not the other recommenders’… I can see that my recommender had submitted a letter but I cannot put her under the other recommender section. Am I doing something incorrect or does my other recommender have to upload the letter again?
Thank you!
I have a similar problem! On one of my colleges, when I try to add my other rec, the box changes from “add recommender” to just plain white even though it says I am allowed 2 other recs.
Also, my other recommender has been trying for WEEKS to upload the rec to the Common App but it won’t let her upload it after it converts the Word doc to PDF. She emailed it to them and they sent her 2 emails saying that they uploaded it for her but it hasn’t updated to reflect that on my side for diff schools - they still say “started”.
I think our problems are just bugs on the Common App’s side (what a surprise). I submitted a help ticket ~2 weeks ago. STILL no word from them, so I suggest you get help from them in a more direct way. I’m going to call them over break.
Good luck to both of us! I could go on and on about the general unreliability of the Common App, but that would need its own thread lol
I know! Good luck to you too! I hope everything will work out!
