I applied yesterday, and according to the person who wrote my peer letter of recommendation, she added the letter to the Common App before I submitted. Today, I received my applicant portal, and on my application checklist it says next to the letter of recommendation “Optional” and there is no indication of my letter having been received. Should I be worried about this? Does this mean they didn’t receive my letter. And if they didn’t receive my letter, how should I go about sending it?
Sometimes it takes a couple of days for everything to be uploaded to the portal. If it doesn’t show up by Monday, I would call the admissions office. Also, check the Common App recommendation section to make sure you “assigned” the person to the peer rec.
