<p>D would like to submit to 4 common app colleges tomorrow but it doesn't appear (though its hard to tell) that the teacher recs are in place (they're writing them but not sure if they've uploaded them). Can she submit the apps and then those arrive later? If not, what's the right way to tell the teachers to speed it up? </p>
<p>Yes, she can submit. Sometimes teacher recs don’t get uploaded until after the deadline for the student info, but colleges don’t penalize for this. They know the schools lag sometimes, and as long at the student gets their app submitted and any fees paid, the student won’t be penalized. Don’t wait, submit if she is ready. After, of course, printing and carefully proofreading the apps. :)</p>
<p>many thanks @intparent </p>
