She’s known me throughout my academic life, is it love?

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I am currently a UK Student and I have been thinking about attending a Film, Art or Media School in America. Preferably California because I heard they have amazing internships for creative students. I have been looking at Chapman University Dodge College - I love the location and I heard the college is amazing.</p>

<p>I have been checking out Common Application and have noticed the Counselor recommendation section. The thing is my school doesn’t have a counsellor that teaches we have an advice and guidance counsellor who is employed by the school but she is from an official Government organization. </p>

<p>She has been my personal counsellor for five years now and have helped me moved from a juvenile delinquent (No, I have never been charged by the police) to an A+ student. I was wondering if I could get her to do my Counsellor recommendation. She has witnessed all my grades, my classroom performance and all my academic achievements. Is it possible for her to do my counsellor recommendation?</p>

<p>I apologise for the misleading title. </p>

<p>Thank you,
Warehouse.</p>

This is what’s called for. A counselor needn’t also be a teacher (that’s what teacher recommendations are for0.</p>

<p>Thank you for the reply, BillyMc. I always thought that they needed a counselor that teaches at the school.</p>

<p>Nope. There are separate recommendation page for teachers. Most schools have counselors that don’t teach; their job is to guide the students.</p>

<p>This is definitely who you should ask to do the counselor recommendation.</p>

<p>I honestly thought we were only limited to counsellors who teach. Thanks for the reply, Red. I’ll definitely get her to do the recommendation. I also have another question – when does Common Application open up for EA applicants this year?</p>

<p>Last year it opened at the beginning of August. I imagine it’ll be the same this year.</p>
