<p>If want a supplementary recommendation from a professor at our local community college - should we ask that the recommender fill out the "teacher recommendation" of the Common App or just write a formal, actual letter?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>Did you take any of his classes? If so, then I think it would be alright to use a teacher rec.</p>
<p>Yes, I took his class ... but he is a college professor and not a high school teacher - still okay to use the CommonApp form?</p>
<p>bumppppp .........!!</p>
<p>good question, also if we want a rec from a non-teacher should we get letter?</p>
<p>since I was using a combination of college professors and non-teachers I used a combination. I asked them to fill out only the applicable questions on the form, and write an actual letter.</p>
