Where should my recommenders send their letters? What happens if they do not arrive on time?
Again, check the instructions on the form. They must arrive on time in order to ensure consideration. Provide addressed and stamped envelopes, offer to pick up and mail and/or hand deliver letters, and call your recommenders before the letter is due to confirm that your recommenders remember the deadline. A recommendation that arrives via e-mail will not have a signature. Therefore, this method of delivery is not acceptable. Faxing a letter of recommendation is discouraged. The applicant is responsible for contacting the recommender and having the letter re-sent, if necessary, or for finding another recommender.
