Applying to Drexel - LoR Question

<p>For Common App schools, the parent writes the counselor letter. When my son applied, he said he was a homeschooler and they sent me (or sent him to send me) a link to create my own part of his application. Drexel isn’t exclusively a common app school, but they do allow it.</p>

<p>I did all the forms as if I were a counselor at a school, but they absolutely knew I was a homeschool parent. I filled out a homeschool supplement as well as a secondary school supplement. The secondary school supplement involved his transcript that I created, a letter of recommendation that I wrote, and several nonsensical (for us) questions about ranking my son compared to other students. It is expected for the counselor to be a teacher for a homeschooler. I did a few web searches to find out what a transcript or letter of recommendation should look like.</p>

<p>I didn’t see anything special on Drexel’s web site about homeschoolers either. But as always, you can call the school to find out more.</p>
