<p>so my letter of rec B is not in. it's done by my english/junior class moderator. i think it is very crucial to the application process since it shows my leadership and creativity. what should i do? I looked on columbia's site for another letter of rec to print out but the app isn't available n e more.</p>
<p>You should call them and check if they got it but havent entered into the system and if they dont have it what should you do next.</p>
<p>i actually have the same exact problem.</p>
<p>Call Columbia to tell em of the problem</p>
<p>Then request ur teacher to fax the reco to Columbia.I did the same thing</p>
<p>thanks. do you think they'll be peeved that it's so late?</p>
<p>also, i'm not even sure if my teacher has actually written the rec or if he's just lying through his teeth. he claims to have written it when i first asked him in the middle of january, since some of my stuff showed up as missing. then he made up some excuse about "never saving letters of recommendation" and his computer "not being networked"... it sounded somewhat fishy, but i let it slide, thinking, whatever, if he'll just write the letter. finally i asked again around january 20, and he said that it was all done and down at the guidance office. and now when i bring up to my counselor that some of my stuff is still reported as missing, she claims that she never got anything from him.</p>
<p>should i just ask a completely different teacher for a letter of recommendation? do you think that he just doesn't want to write me a letter but doesn't want to say it directly?</p>
<p>"do you think they'll be peeved that it's so late?"
I dont think so.But send it in as quickly as you can.</p>
<p>Ask ur teacher politely if he has any copy of ur recommendation with him..If he doesnt and refuses..lsend in another reco..</p>
<p>is this the math reco ur talking abt?</p>
<p>math? haha i don't know if i would ask my math teacher for a rec. i asked my history teacher. yeah, i think tomorrow i'm just going to ask if he has another copy saved, and explain what my counselor said. and meanwhile i'll probably get my english teacher from last year to help me out, even though i know she'll be annoyed at me for asking her in february.</p>
<p>i asked my english teacher and what if she didn't saved a copy of it?</p>
<p>today i asked my chem teacher for one. he agreed. my chem teacher also said that he saves every single one of his recs --forever-- even the ones of students already gone. so other than that stupid inconvenience from my history teacher, i ought to be fine eventually. GRR.. i need it to be APRIL already!</p>
<p>On the Columbia website it says that they consider your app complete with only one teacher rec.</p>
<p>hey, are you sure that you sent a report A and a report B, static? because by accident, i sent two report A's, and it shows up on the site that I do not have my report B in. but I emailed them and they said they have two A's, so I'm technically complete. the same problem could have happened to you.</p>
<p>My Form B is also missing. I don't remember which teacher I gave A to and B to, so hopefully it shows up soon or I'm gonna have to put myself through a lot of inconvenience to fix it! haha.</p>
<p>my daughter had same problem. Rec. was faxed by teacher, but the site still has it as missing. Guess they are comsumed with paperwork. Some sites are more efficient than others.</p>
<p>"hey, are you sure that you sent a report A and a report B, static? because by accident, i sent two report A's, and it shows up on the site that I do not have my report B in. but I emailed them and they said they have two A's, so I'm technically complete. the same problem could have happened to you."</p>
<p>oh that MIGHT be it...all righty i'll email them.</p>
<p>There is a problem with their way of procesing documents. they entered my rec A on jan 20 but on feb 7 they updated the site and it now says that they procesed my rec A on feb 7. wierd!</p>
<p>all right, in this on-going saga, it turns out that the guidance department finally found the original rec by my history teacher. but by then i'd already gotten the one from my chem teacher written up. my counselor just sent out both of those. i think it's way too many recs to be sending out... you know, the thicker the file, the thicker the applicant... that sort of thing.</p>
<p>for a long time my application tracking thing also said that my second letter of recommendation was not in but i just called them and they said they had it they just haven't updated the site in a while.</p>
<p>Yeah same thing for me they haven't received my "Letter B" yet.</p>
<p>My teacher sent in another letter and it still hasn't been recorded yet...</p>
