<p>hey everyone,
i gave my rec packets out awhile ago (2 teachers, secondary school report, supplemental rec), and they're all fine, except for one of my teacher recs...she hasnt sent it in yet, and she just left for 3 weeks due to a family emergency...while i feel absolutely horrible having to interrupt her in a time of potential grievance, i need to know what i should do...should i email her? should i get another teacher to write a rec ASAP? please help!</p>
<p>i'd try to find out if shes dont it or not. if she hasnt, assume that her rec wont be very good because she is obviously in the middle of a crisis, and therefore ask someone else. if she has done it, try to make it as easy as possible for her to send it in. hope this helps</p>
<p>Call Princeton. Ask if you should let it be late or get another rec.</p>
<p>i've heard that Princeton gives a bit of lee-way for teachers to turn in recs.</p>
<p>but that doesnt apply to student apps themselves</p>
<p>im submitting my app sometime in this upcoming week, if not today...its just that one rec im worried about...i'll call princeton tomorrow and see what they have to say about it</p>
