USC app bar codes?

I’m not really sure about this, but applicants are required to request barcodes from their office and stick them onto the forms they send out.

Since I’m doing everything online, the only form I’m sending, and which will need a barcode, is the teacher rec’s form. The pdf I downloaded already has barcodes but there’s still a space to put one, so I assume those arent the ones they’re looking for then. Also btw, how many rec’s should I send, they only require 1 right?

How long does it take to request and get barcodes? I’m worried that since it’s kinda late they won’t arrive in time before the Dec. 10 deadline.

<p>I think if you don't have barcodes you can put your name and SSN# on each page. The bar codes are there to prevent confusion between people with the same name.
You only need to send one rec but you can send more.
Some of my friends are having trouble getting barcodes or they have 2 kinds. Just email and double check that you can just write your name and SSN#.</p>

<p>Do you need to send a transcript as well?</p>
