Recommendation letter: use common app instructor evaluation form?

Transfer Students
1

<p>My professors asked me if there's a specific form that they must use for writing the recommendation letters. I am attending a college outside of the US so they are not familiar with the transfer application process for US colleges.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/DownloadForms.aspx%5B/url%5D"&gt;https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/DownloadForms.aspx&lt;/a>
Do they have to use and fill out the above common app's instructor evaluation form? If they are required to use the form, how can I get around the problem of not being able to sign electronically on the form (the "waive my right to access..........." section)?</p>

<p>Any help/suggestions would be appreciated =D</p>

<p>Do the colleges you are applying to require the common app? If so, then you will want that form.</p>

<p>Print out the form, sign it, then give it to your professors. After they are finished, they can make as many copies as you need to send to schools. For transfer apps, school forms are all on paper anyways, so you don’t need to sign the form electronically.</p>

<p>Thank you! =)</p>

<p>So you just ask the teachers to fill out the instructor evaluation form, and they make copies and send them to the schools you are applying to? Should you mail envelopes to them with the addresses, or do they just mail them off?</p>

<p>I am an international applicant as well (from Canada). I went to the post office, bought tons of envelopes and stamps, addressed all of the envelopes, and gave them to my professors along with the Common App form. After that, it’s out of your hands.</p>
