When should the counselors submit their ED agreement?

My counselor is unable to complete his ED agreement in CommonApp. It is just showing some errors. Also do I need to submit my application before my counselor gives his agreement ? I dont have much time for deadline -please need some opinions

You do not need to submit your application before your counselor submits his agreement. However, your counselor needs to submit his agreement by the ED deadline (some schools offer grace periods, but I wouldn’t count on this.) Has he tried contacting Common App tech support? Have you confirmed he is assigned to the school and that the school is the ONLY one that you have selected ED1 as your decision plan?

I think it can also be submitted hard copy. You may want to investigate that.

Hello PikachuRocks15 Thanks for your comment . Actually I thought that the the application needed to be sent first as I am seeing errors. I will tell him as soon as possible to contact common app tech support and there is only one ED application that I am submitting,

Its not possible sending a hard copy

Hopefully CA support can resolve the issue. I think @murray93 is referring to the pdf version of the ED agreement, which some schools will allow students to scan and submit via email if they applied RD and want to change to ED.
