<p>If my teachers have already written my letters of recommendation, will it matter if they send them before I have actually finished my applications?</p>
<p>I don’t think it will matter. You usually can’t submit the app until you’re done with the essay, which takes time. Plus, they won’t review your submissions until your entire application (transcripts, scores, essay, application, recs, etc.) is complete, so I doubt they’ll even care that your recs were in before your application.</p>
<p>It was good that you gave your teachers plenty of time to get your recs done and nice of them to finish so quickly. It’s fine for the different parts of your apps to arrive at schools separately and often recs and test scores come in first. Your schools will have no problem with this.</p>
<p>Alright, thanks guys! :)</p>
