Letters of Recommendation
Not all colleges require teacher recommendations. Please confirm they do before requesting a letter.
Please allow at least three-weeks notice when requesting a letter of recommendation. The due date you assign to your recommender must be 10 schools days prior to your first application deadline. (Example: If your college deadline is November 1, make sure you indicate to your teacher and/or counselor, you need the letter completed by October 15.)
Teacher Recommendation
Fill out the Teacher Recommendation Form. You should not ask more than two teachers. These letters are confidential.
Counselor Recommendation & Parent Form
If any of your applications require a counselor recommendation you must complete a Counselor Recommendation Form.
