Submit apps before LORs sent?

[NeverForever]

Can I submit my applications to schools before all my LORs are sent in and processed, or is that a bad call?

thanks. because i'm anxious to get this out of the way, but my LOR's might not be sent for another month.

It seems like it would be nearly impossible to try to time them to arrive at the same time, so I think it's actually better for apps to arrive first than for letters to arrive first.  Not that it makes a difference either way, but it seems better to get an app without an LOR than an LOR without an app.  But either way doesn't make a difference really from what I've read, because they start a file for you as soon as they receive something.

I'm definitely going to be submitting my app before the LORs are processed.  I'm determined to meet my Oct 1 deadline!

Are you talking about the common app?  I left mine blank, and I have yet to see a LS app that asks for that.  I was about ready to call my HS counselor.

Yeah I was talking about the common form. But you haven't run across a requirement for HS GPA? That's a good sign I guess. I was just bent on getting that thing filled in completely before sumbiting it because I guess if you want to make changes you have to do it manually in every app.
