What is a school counselor?

<p>Hi! I am a rising senior from an Indian school which does not have a counselor (and I intend to apply to some schools in the states for UG). Can someone please explain what a school counselor is and what exactly he needs to submit via the common app?? I heard that there is a Common Application School Report Form and a letter of evaluation but what exactly are they?? </p>

<p>A school counselor or guidance counselor is a student adviser who is part of the school administration. Perhaps you have an assistant principal or assistant to your headmaster, or head of form which is similar. The report they send comments on the overall offerings of the school (how amny APs etc) and how your performance there compares. It puts your transcript into perspective. </p>

<p>Can you send me Common Application School Report Form or something?</p>

<p>You find it on the internet when you fill out you common application online.<br>
