Hi! I was wondering how recommendations work. I’m an international student and I noticed that we need recommendations from a counsellor and two teachers( please do correct me if I’m wrong). I’m planning to apply to multiple colleges in the US which means I need a lot of teachers and counselors. My question is, do I truly require multiple teachers for recommendations or could a teacher write multiple or make a general one. As well, for counselor recommendations, I heard school staff like my school principal can suffice, however is there other individuals I could ask for recommendations in this section(or the teacher section)? I ask this because I see people getting recommendations from their boss, a CEO, someone they shadowed, etc. I just wanted some clarity in this section of the admission application and any help would be appreciated! Thank you very much!
Amazing!!! Had no idea it worked like that. 😮
🥰
Then do u mean that if we need a full ride scholarship we shouldn’t apply to Early decision and apply to Regular Decision?
So does that mean that if I apply to Early Decision 2 I will have more chances to get into those selective schools? ( for example for a full ride scholarship?)
Plz advise international students too
Can I personally reach out to you for help?
Hey there! Thank you for reaching out :) You can reach me and my staff through our website www.socraticsummeracademy.com
Can u plz also advise for international students also in the same video plzzzzzz
We will be releasing a video on international applications in June! :D
Wat about international students???
About requesting for a laptop, is it applicable for international students?
Hi Can u 1 on 1 help in college applications ?
I want need blind scholarship and I'll not be able to pay the fees so should I apply for eay decision to ivy leagues like yale ..?
Very nice❤❤
Thanks 🤗
