Hey guys,

Do we send LOR's with our secondaries or is it ok to send those a little later? I just noticed that some people are already getting their secondaries. What if the letter writers haven't send in the letter yet? Are there due dates with the letters of rec or do the schools just wait till everything is sent before they look at your file? Thanks a bunch!!!!

I believe most schools understand that the letters of recommendation will take some time. They typically like to have the secondary application submitted within 2 - 3 weeks of receipt, and therefore recommend not waiting on the LORs to submit.

Be sure to check with the specific schools you are applying to. Hope this helps!
