Late Teacher Recommendation Letter
Answered

I'm a senior applying for several colleges right now and I realized that for one of the colleges I'm applying to, I submitted the application on time but I needed one more teacher recommendation letter. Will the college still accept it if my teacher submits the recommendation letter a few days after the application deadline?

I think the best thing you can do right now is send an email explaining the situation (including that you have already sent you application on time) and ask them if you can send the letter as an additional document or something. Hope it will help!
