Letter of Recommendation

<p>If the teacher and guidance counselor mail the letter of recommendation and transcripts before I submit my application will the colleges keep the papers? I gave my envelops to my teacher and GC already but I'm afraid that it might get lost since I have submitted my commonapp since I'm still working on my essay and supplements. Does anyone know what the colleges do with the letters if they get that before the actual application?
Thanks!</p>

<p>This happens thousands and thousands of times. Stop worrying. Do you think the colleges are idiots? they WANT to admit students</p>

<p>You’re right! I’m just overly paranoid. Thanks for the response!</p>
