College Applications-
Yes - for those applying to college, we are in the throes of the EA (early action) ED (early decision) application season. Exciting stuff!
Please again review our school's support statement please remain calm, cool, and concise. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IsXUxJ2Ms7vtabYEEyDcjHZFKES9jS3L/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=107438590703089759729&rtpof=true&sd=true
Recommendation Letters -
Not every college requires or even requests a free standing or separate letter - only 25% of colleges make this a requirement.
What type of colleges would that be? - private and/or highly selective institutions. Yes - you guessed it large public institutions like UGA, GSU, and GA Tech do not require a recommendation.
But if you do run across a school that does, in fact, incorporate a recommendation letter with your college application, then you should've already supplied us (your counselor and any recommender) with your resume and/or brag sheet:

There's a standard two-week time frame for a quality product.
Recommendation letters along with other key points important in this process were addressed at your senior advisement session.
