Teacher recommendations! Help

<p>Can I send one of my required teacher recommendations after the regular decision application deadline . I don't think I will be able to mail it in before the application deadline.
Thank You.</p>

<p>You should call to make sure, but I don’t think that would be a huge problem if you mail it in reasonably quickly. Duke considers your application to be complete with just one teacher rec, and they’ll give you until Feb 15 to make sure all parts of your app are marked as complete.</p>

<p>Second the call to make sure advice. I’ll also add that Duke is generally more tolerant of late arrival of parts of your application that are beyond your control. In essence, stuff that you personally have to complete and submit (CommonApp, Duke supplement, arts supplement, etc) must strictly adhere to posted deadlines. But stuff that other people have to complete and submit (standardized test score reports, letters of rec, grade reports, etc) Duke will usually give a bit of leeway since they presumably understand that there may be nothing you can do despite doing everything on time.</p>

<p>Thanks guys I’ll try my best to mail it in as soon as possible!</p>
