<p>is it ok if i give my teachers the evaluation forms for them to start writing my letter of recommendation if i haven’t made an account with the school? i’m applying to columbia ED and i haven’t signed up to start applying , but can i print out the forms and give them to my teacher?</p>
<p>Yes, you can give them to the teachers now. But you probably should start your online app/registration now, so your account is officially opened with Columbia. They will need your SS# to start collating your admissions folder. You don’t want them to lose your recs if they arrive before your account is set up.</p>
<p>Good luck! And, have you considered asking your guidance counselor to fill out a fee waiver form for you? If your family is experienceing economic hardships, the form can waive all application fees.</p>
