My school don't have school counselor. What should I do
Answered

My school don't have school counselor, which is typical for my country. But my school did provide me all official document that I need for my application. So, I am wondering that can I still apply without school counselor.

P.S: I already graduated the school and all teacher i know stopped working there, and i have absolutely no way to connect them.

Let the colleges know in your application, mention your school provided the docs, and ask other adults who know you well (like a coach or employer) for recommendations. Use the extra info section to explain your situation and efforts. If in doubt, reach out directly to the college admissions offices for guidance.

Thank you for advice, i was thinking about doing that as well, but i hesitated whether they accept it or not.

They absolutely accept it! I am a homeschooler so I do not technically have a high school counselor :) and we get into colleges just fine. I thought i answered this question earlier, my apologies if it did not go through.
