How do I do letters of recommendation from the Common App?
First, complete a brag sheet and ask your teacher to write a letter of recommendation for you. If they say yes, you must create an account through the common app at commonapp.org. Then, you must add the college to your colleges list. From your My colleges list, choose the school that needs the letter of recommendation. On the left-hand side, select Recommenders and FERPA. From there, you must either waive or not waive your right to FERPA Release Authorization. Then, you can click "Invite and Manage Recommenders". Just fill in the necessary information from there and your recommender should receive an email. Make sure to invite a counselor to complete the rest of your information as well.
What is the most expensive college in the US?
The most expensive college in the US is Harvey Mudd, coming at the ticket price of $67,255 a year. The price is split up with a cost of $50,749 for tuition and fees and $16,506 for room and board. Just to note, Harvey Mudd requires all freshman to live on campus the first year, so even though the college is close and commuting is possible, commuting is not possible the first year, driving the expense to $67,255. Second place goes to Columbia University with an MSRP of $66,383 including tuition and room and board. Third place goes to New York University, retailing at $65,860. If any of you guys plan on going to one of these, be prepared to hit the student loans or scholarships.
That is pretty expensive, never thought of these colleges being the most expensive. Thought it would be like harvard or USC.
ReplyDeleteAlthough they are very expensive, these caused can be lowered somewhat, or possibly greatly by using financial aid. Furthermore, it is a good idea to apply for scholarships, as a lot of them are quite valuable. At the very least, you could cover transportation costs.
