Additional recommendation after deferral

I was recently deferred for upenn and I know that they allow you to submit one update through the portal but I was wondering if I could also submit another letter of recommendation? If so, would I just add the recommender through the common app? And would it need to be completed by the RD deadline or by the end of January?

The recommendation from those who know specifically say not to send more than the school says to send for additional consideration. Do keep that in mind. Additional recs unless it has something in them that is a real game changer, are not going to make much difference.

My daughter was deferred and admitted in 2023 RD. She sent a page of update (what she did in last 4 months. she directed a drama for the school, sent the donation to suicide prevention since her school had 4 suicides recently. what else she was doing to prevent suicide weave…She got two letters from her dance teachers (Indian and ballet). She gave the link of her dance portfolio in her personal statement…

Don’t lose hope… Give a strong statement (don’t write school academic stuff… they already see the midterm grades)…
