EA I and recommedations

We found out that the teacher and counselor can´t get a recommendation together by 11-1. Should S3 just apply for EA II instead? Or is there a way to just let them know that the rec’s will be forthcoming?

I think this would be worth giving admissions a call to ask.

@patertrium I am curious what happened in your cirumstance.

My D19 submitted an application EA2 on the EA1 date because it was missing a recommendation. She’d been in contact with an admissions officer a few times in October and told her that she’d do EA1. I told her to submit anyway on Nov 1, and didn’t realize D had changed the EA1 to EA2. I’d thought, but hadn’t clearly said that the school would shift her to EA2 if necessary. Whatever. Just wait till February.

Now there’s an email in her box reminding her to set up her portal so she can receive her admissions info. I realize it’s auto-generated, and I’m not going to say anything, but it occurs to me that the AO may have shifted her back to EA1, as the recommendation went in on Nov 2nd.
