I'm applying this cycle and have everything in including supplemental essays/fees mailed out for the schools I have heard back from. I am missing two letters of recommendation, and will not be able to have them in until late August. :(

So, I have read here and there that some people have gotten interview invites in the past without all their LORs in yet. (Such as at NOVA). This seems like a myth and highly unlikely but I was just wondering if this actually ever happens.

I've heard of it, but I wouldn't be expecting it. :)
 
I received an interview at NOVA with just 2 LOR submitted, I'll have the other 2 sent this week

No other people you can ask? I'd rather get some generic letter now than wait that long.

Sadly, no. I have had these two professors for multiple science courses so I don't have other options as far as other professors to ask. :( The few other science professors I have had either do not write letters for anybody or have moved/are impossible to contact. -.- Sort of takes the fun out of applying "early" lol.
 
JUST GOT AN INTERVIEW. THEY MUST HAVE SENSED I POSTED ABOUT THEM ON SDN. :soexcited:
