<p>Can someone update me on this? I heard that you can't get recommendations for UCs. Does that mean they don't talk to your counselor whatsoever?</p>
<p>No, they don’t have any recommendations. No counselor or teacher recs. And don’t bother sending them in…they won’t look at this.</p>
<p>They don’t have time to read 150,000 recommendations.</p>
<p>so does that mean they have no communication with your school Whatsoever?</p>
<p>Incorrect: Your school sends them the requisite info and the colleges decide accordingly. There’s no ongoing communication if you mean that – they don’t require it.</p>
<p>This is the same with about 90% of US colleges, you know. VERY few require teacher or GC recs.</p>
<p>So do they know whether or not you got in trouble in high school… cheating wise…? Ivy Leagues Require it don’t they?</p>
<p>You should ask your HS what is on the documentation they send – including disciplinary actions. How would any of us know your school’s policies?</p>
