Im not applying to cornell so i have no idea what time they close. I would be super panicking by now though. I would try calling whereever they work or whoever knows this person, and try to get a phone number. I'm sure if they here a scared student on the phone who needs their recommendation they will be helpful and try to get you in contact with them.

did everything turn out okay?
worst comes the worst since cornell is a school that asks for a **** ton of letters, if one of your letters doesn't come in (esp if it's not from an experience that you're counting on to get you that acceptance) it's not the end of the world.
what's really weird about my tracking page is that it says it's gotten my vmcas, AND that it's gotten my vmcas paper rec letter even... but none of the vmcas eLORS have been verified. I stopped bugging them about it since I already talked to them about it a couple of times and they said it might just take a little while for that to come in (?). I am going to be FUMING mad though if they tell me my application is incomplete because of that. I mean... what else am I supposed to do. it seems like they have all of my vmcas stuff... gah!

The Cornell tracking page actually tracked in my 4 eLORs a little oddly as well. All were submitted by the deadline, but only 3 were tracked in at the same time as the application. The other one took an additional 2 weeks. It was submitted to VMCAS later than the others, though (the other 3 were all submitted by September 3rd, this one wasn't until September 20th or so).
