Late letter writer
2tUSSCs-1-1-1-1

Hi folks,
So, I have two letters of recommendation on file and assigned to schools. I have asked three people to write me letters, and I am still waiting on the third. I should get it this week (I would hope), but then again I also thought I would have gotten it by now.
My question is: If I submit applications now, without the third letter received (and therefore without it assigned), can I assign it to schools once I do receive it even if I have already submitted the applications for those schools? Or is it impossible for me to assign a letter to a school, so that ideally the admissions committee then looks it over at some point, if I have already submitted the application for that school?
With the utmost respect to all my fellow 7Sage users, I am not interested in advice about whether I should or shouldn't wait to submit applications until I get the third letter. I am interested in the answer to the specific question I asked. Thanks!!

Sounds like you need to assign the letter of recommendation to the school, but you don't have to have the letter actually in LSAC.
Thanks for responding! But it doesn't look like I can assign the letter writer (or the letter of recommendation itself) to a school without having it. That was the case for my two other letter writers. There was no way for me to "assign" anything related to them or their letters before actually receiving their letters.
You should contact the schools and ask them if this is possible.
Correction. AlexLSAT is actually right. My bad. It is possible to assign a letter writer to a school even if (s)he hasn't uploaded the letter yet.
