<p>Hi everybody, I asked a second teacher for my letter of recommendation, and he told me he would get his recommendation done sometime this week, but so far he has not. He knows the deadline is next week, but I was just wondering--what would happen if he didn't finish it by then? Would I be able to talk to the colleges to work something out, or would my application be over?</p>
<p>It should be fine if it’s somewhere close to the deadline; colleges understand that some things are not in your control/.</p>
<p>Thank you @skieurope
Do you have any idea as to whether common app will allow the letter to be submitted after the deadline, or will i have to mail or submit directly to the college’s application site or something like that?</p>
