<p>My teacher said he mailed the recommendations 14 days ago and I know its the holiday season and all, but is it normal for it to take this long? myMIT says it still hasn't been processed. I live in PA so it shouldn't that long to reach Boston.</p>
<p>Yes - nothing to worry about.</p>
<p>Don’t worry. No one is in the admissions office right now so I’m pretty sure they aren’t processing anything, and won’t be for another week.</p>
<p>And even if the admissions office were working this week, it still wouldn’t be unusual for application pieces to take two or more weeks to be processed at this point in the application season – the mail room is dealing with a deluge of mail.</p>
<p>My rec wasn’t processed for quite some time. If it turns out that they didn’t receive it, they’ll email you and ask for you to fax it. Nothing to worry about.</p>
