<p>About waiving your right of access, how wary will colleges be of those that are left unsigned? One of my teachers just writes a generic letter addressed to "Admissions Committee" and has students copy it. Needless to say I have seen it, and thus did not sign the waiver. Will it matter that this form is unsigned and the others are? (the others remained confidential and were sent by the teacher/counselor) Sorry if I am just being overly paranoid (in which case you may say so), but I was just wondering about this.</p>
<p>Does "waiving your right of access" mean that you haven't seen the recommendation? I don't think so. It just means that you can't demand to see it in the future, right? (Someone correct me if this is wrong, legally). So why don't you sign the waiver?</p>
<p>If a teacher writes a generic letter and expects students to make a copy and send it in, that letter is worthless, in my opinion. Maybe more than worthless.. perhaps detrimental to the application. I'd get a letter from another teacher.</p>
