Hey guys, looking for some of that hive wisdom.
So I have been verified and submitted my app with all LoR already sent out to schools as of Friday. BU was pretty fast and looked into my LoR's and notified me, by way of putting my application on hold, that one of my character reference writers did not use institution letterhead AND didn't sign the letter. Annoying because its confidential and there's no way I could have done something about it until now. I contacted the letter writer but he will be out of the office until 8/1. Now, I have a committee letter and 3 other letters, one character and two hospital supervisors where I work, so I already fulfill the LoR requirement. However, the LoR in question I believe would be a great asset towards my application by ways of beefing up my leadership qualities.
So, two options. Wait for the writer to get me an updated later in 3 weeks and thereby keep all my applications on hold until then, OR Contact every medical school and tell them to disregard the letter and simply send the corrected letter in later as an application update.
Thoughts?
