Completing The Common App FERPA Agreement Applicants will submit the FERPA decision on their Common Application account FERPA question is answered when you add your first college to the application. Under the “My Colleges” tab of your application. In order for the counseling office to send transcripts, counselor recommendations, and teacher recommendations, this FERPA portion MUST be completed and your NAVIANCE account linked with your Common App account. Counselors will assist with this in senior meetings. The FERPA agreement must be completed for all Common APP schools. Here you will choose whether or nit you waive your rights to access your letters of recommendation.

Completing the Senior Letter of Recommendation Survey Student If the student hasn’t already done so, we ask all students to complete their survey. The counselors use this information to assist in completing their letter of recommendation. Parent The parent also has there own version of the survey to complete. The parent survey can be completed only by using the parent account and can not be found on the student’s account. Completing this survey assists counselors to complete the student’s recommendation. There are two separate senior letter of recommendation surveys one for the parent and one for the student. We ask that you complete these surveys to assist us as counselors to complete your son or daughter recommendation.

Students must be on their account to access the survey and parents must be on their parent account to access the parent survey
