Additional LOR

mimimimi

Dear 7sagers,

I have this dean who knows me very very well. I was afraid that she could not write LOR before school deadlines, so I submitted all my applications without indicating that there will be a third from her. Now hers has arrived. Shall I talk to schools to submit one more LOR? Does it hurt? Does it help?

Thank you so much!

MrSamIam

I doubt it would hurt you. You can mention that you requested that she submit it at her earliest convenience. The admissions board will probably know that deans tend to have incredibly busy schedules - at least that has been my experience with the ones I spoke to.

Thank you so much for your reply! How should I contact the admissions to submit this additional LOR? Do you have any suggestions?

MrSamIam

@mimimimi Sure thing! You probably already know how to submit a LOR via the LSAC, so I won't go over that. Regarding the school, contact their admissions office. Tell them what you told us here (you submitted an application, but one of your LORs was just submitted after the fact). Ask them what steps you would have to take to ensure that the admissions committee receives said LOR.
