Common App Teacher Evaluation Letter

For teachers and counselors reviewing the short written evaluation (1,000 words or less) attached to the Common App Teacher Evaluation before it goes out.

The written evaluation a teacher or counselor attaches to the Common App Teacher Evaluation for a college applicant - classroom vantage, anecdote-backed evidence, and the form's own differentiate-this-student mandate. The ratings grid, course list, transcript, and school profile are forms, not prose, and are out of scope.
