<p>hey when a teacher write you aa recommendation for the common app is it supposed to be a general question or is it supposed to be tailored to each individual college?</p>
<p>General question.</p>
<p>i thought it could be tailored a bit. like they could say “to X University” and “to Y University” for such and such reasons. am i wrong?</p>
<p>(Caveat: this answer is slightly different for Naviance schools, so check with your counselor.)</p>
<p>If a teacher submits an evaluation online, then he or she cannot customize the letter for individual colleges. The teacher completes one form, with one set of accompanying comments, and all colleges receive that same information. If a teacher chooses to mail the recommendation, this restriction doesn’t apply.</p>
