Additional rec letter submitted after I sent application - Common App
Answered

I submitted my application for a school on the Common App yesterday. However, my additional recommender (non-essential recommender) only submitted their letter now. I know the Common App states that teachers and counselors can submit late, but does this hold true for additional recommenders? Will the school receive this letter (the deadline is Nov. 1st, so the deadline hasn't passed)?

Hi there! The situation worked itself out. It seems that the recommender didn't know they had to add an address.
