<p>I am so confused! I just submitted my common app a few days ago to several schools. I recently got messages back saying that they received my application, but they are still missing my transcript and counselor recommendation form. I thought those were included in the common app??? Does this mean I have to send paper transcripts and counselor recommendations to each of my schools?</p>
<p>counselor rec(unless you invite your counselor) and transcripts are not included on commonapp. However, the transcripts can be sent only by mail. Counselor rec(secondary school report) must be sent in by your school counselor. For that, you must invite him first and then he receives an email. But, since your app is sent, those forms must be sent by mail(paper). Download the secondary school report from commonapp website and get it filled by your counselor. Mail this form and your transcripts to those colleges.</p>
