I really messed up...

I submitted my application for the deadline, no problem, but somehow missed the email about a MyStatus page so assumed my application was on its way. Today I found out that I needed to do a student info page and my teachers had to upload their recommendations via that page instead of through the mail like my other schools. My scores and transcripts were already in though. I did it as soon as possible but my assumption is that I don’t really have a chance at this point. Can someone confirm this or say otherwise?

Also they could have looked at my application because all of the information on the MyStatus page was just a repeat of what was included in the actual application, but they may not have because it wasn’t technically submitted. I don’t really know. Help would be much appreciated, even if it’s bad news.

Exactly what does your MyStatus page say? Does it say application under review? There is a tab to check documents. What documents are listed as received.

My son’s high school has the teachers mail the recommendations to UT (all other recs were sent electronically). It took a long time for the mailed recs to show up, but eventually they were listed under the documents tab.

If I remember correctly, teacher recs are requested for the honors and PlanII applications.

On my application, it says that teacher recs are recommended, so technically it could have been reviewed without them. However, I just turned in the student information page (called the high school course info form on the documents page) today, which is what was keeping my application from having been submitted at the deadline. I sent the requests for my teachers to submit them today but they haven’t submitted them yet since I just did it.
