If you are applying to universities via the Common app it is very likely you will require at least one Teacher Recommendation
- This are requested via “Recommendations” on BridgeU and the teacher receives an email with your request.
- They then submit their letter of recommendation for your counsellor to send.
If you have multiple applications and/or multiple letters of recommendation, your counsellor will need to know your preferences for which university on your application list should be sent which teacher’s letter of recommendation.
Use our CommonApp TeacherRec assignment spreadsheet to indicate your preferences and share it with your BridgeU advisor or guidance counselor.
