<p>Have any of you sent in any additional letters of recommendation or followup letters? I'm looking to send these in with my midyear report. Good idea?</p>
<p>When I applied ED, I had my program supervisor at my research internship write me a rec letter (supplemental) specific to what I did and why I should be in Vagelos LSM (and how I would be a fit for such a program). I never knew if they got it (REMEMBER–Penn NEVER releases if your supplemental recs reach admissions, no matter how many times you ask). But hey, I’m proud to be a part of Vagelos LSM Class of 2016, so, yeah!</p>
<p>My counselor told me sending an additional recommendation is fine. As for the follow-up letter, write one if you have new updated information. But if you are just going to write how Penn is still your number one, then i think it’s pretty pointless. I mean you already applied ED, so they already know how interested you are. No letter could ever capitulate that. But it’s up to you.</p>
