I searched around and did not find a very recent or solid answer on this question. I have emailed the AADSAS in regards to this but wondering if any of ya'll have been in my situation.

the deadline for a couple of schools I'm applying for is September 30th, I decided to apply two weeks ago, and I believe my LOR are not going to be complete until the 25-28th of this month. In order for me to have my application processed can I submit it without LOR complete but still have my LOR's added as they submit them via the electronic form?

Thanks a lot

Oh, believe me, this question is on here. Anyway, yes. Submit now. Get that thing processing. Letters can come later.

your AADSAS application can be sent to each school WITHOUT the LORs in. LORs can be given in later on and sent in the batch it's in. However, your application will not be reviewed by the school till it's in.

I don't think you'll be able to make the september 30th deadline if you haven't esubmitted yet. It takes a while to get your grades verified and can go anywhere from 4-6 weeks.

You almost definitely WILL make the september 30th deadline. That is a month away. I submitted my app on July 16th and I was completely verified and mailed out by July 27th. And I saw threads where recent apps were verified and mailed out even quicker. Just submit right away and you will make the deadline no problem. assuming your transcripts have already arrived or will arrive very soon.

Should I send the email to the people writing my LOR's before submitting or can I do that afterward?
Thanks a lot for your help.

This is one the ADEA website. Scroll to the bottom page and it gives you a summary of the AADSAS application process.

Also, submit now with or without your LORs so that you can get your GPA verified ASAP (took me ~2 weeks). Then, it will get mailed. Have your professors write your letters ASAP because it will take ~2 weeks (just based on how long it took me) for your LORs to get processed by AADSAS. Afterwards, they will be mailed out to the schools.
