Teacher recommendations

[gregsmom]

<p>This is probably a really stupid question (I'm a parent).</p>

<p>On the common application, there is a place to "invite" your counselors and teachers to provide recommendations for you via email. At what point are the emails sent to the teachers? Is it when they are invited to give a recommendation or when you submit the application (I assume the former but am not entirely sure).</p>

<p>And is there a way (on the common app website) to tell whether or not the emails have actually been sent to the teachers? </p>

<p>Forgive my ignorance...but please help!</p>

<p>when you invite them
you cannot tell if the emails have been sent, but they have once you click the invite button, check with the teacher to see if they have received it, if not then click the resend button.</p>
