<p>One of the criteria for the Fu Foundation of Engineering was to get a letter from your math teacher? I just realized it now... but since I didn't am I screwed??
Someone help me out here please!</p>
<p>i dont think you’re screwed, but i think its gonna hurt your application a lot.</p>
<p>I think it will either not matter at all, or it will hurt your application a lot. I actually fear the latter.
They’re going to evaluate it still, because Ivy leagues like to make their acceptance rate small… for example, I submitted my Common App to Princeton, but I decided not to apply last minute, so I didn’t submit the supplement nor the payment. …but they’re still evaluating it.</p>
<p>You’re in the same boat as me haha!</p>
<p>lol not to sound condemning but…did you really not know you had to have a math teacher rec when you applied? and not until a week before decisions come out? I mean…</p>
<p>Idk about Columbia, but for a lot of other schools on that caliber, it does indeed matter. I have a friend who got a email from Caltech telling him that his application will be thrown out because he didn’t have a humanities teacher recommendation (he submitted one math and one science; although he did get an English teacher to write a rec in the end, apparently he told her too late or something and she just didn’t have the time to finish it or something); a very similar thing happpend to a friend who submitted an applicatino washinton and lee</p>
<p>i know… i really thought the requirements were the same. im feeling terrible now :((
i guess i’m rejected now 
MileHigh, please tell me what happens, just curious to know.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t worry too much about it. I didn’t send in a recommendation from my math teacher, and I still got a likely letter to Fu.</p>
<p>darkcyanstar, thank you for the reassurance
you just saved my hopes again :)</p>
<p>Yeah you shouldn’t worry about it. I applied ED without a letter from a math teacher and I still got in.</p>
