I'm in a deep dilemma concerning my lors:
my app printout has been mailed today, but I haven't sent all my lors yet. I have 3 lor's on my file at my university: 2 from science profs, 1 from dentist. now, about 1 month ago, my other prof (the non-science prof, for the 4th letter) said he was gonna send the letter to the undergraduate office by "next week". now, 1 month later, it still hasn't arrived. i have emailed him several times but he doesn't respond, and he no longer teaches at my university, but now teaches in tennesee (he has been teaching there for a few years now) , so i can't physically see him. by the way, all the 3 profs didn't them to aadsas, but they sent it to my school, and my school will send them to aadsas once i tell them to do so. so, i have the following options:
1) forget about that non-science letter and send the 3 lors that i already have on my file. drawback: my file at my school will be closed and i will have to pay $5 per school once i decide to send the 4th letter (if it ever arrives) through my school to aadsas.
2) send the 3 letters i have, and since my file will close, send that lor matching form from aadsas to that prof that doesn't answer my email, along with an envelope and some stamps and tell him to send the letter to aadsas rather than to my school. drawback: if he doesn't respond to my emails, what are the chances he'll respond to snail mail?
sorry for ranting about this..but i fear my application will be delayed even though it has been mailed to individual schools today.
thanks for any advice!
