Regular Decision - deadline for receving recommendations

<p>My son is applying to SCS (regular decision). </p>

<p>The deadline for applying is January 1. Does it mean that all teacher recommendations have to be submitted by January 1? Will CMU consider the application if one of the recommendations reaches in the first week of January?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>CMU is on the common app so I would think your teacher would do it through there, especially if you have Naviance. Really it needs to be sent about two weeks before. I think the final minimum is to have it postmarked on Jan 1st.</p>
