[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only a couple colleges expect everything to be submitted by the deadline. Even Michigan, famous for this, emailed counselors to extend the supporting documents deadline to Monday.

I agree.

And I’m the teacher who recently posted that I’ll only write letters once they are officially requested, and even that angered someone. There’s really no grace extended to teachers on this thread. It’s like people just want to be angry. [/quote]

I dont know about that. I think people just want clarity. I assume if a student asks a teacher in junior year and the teacher says yes - BUT there is more to it, that the teachers has expressed those conditions. (ie, "I will happily write you a supporting letter - but I will not do it until you have confirmed this in September by doing x, y, z).  if they don't express those conditions, then it's weird.

In my family, if you agree to go to prom with someone, you've agreed to go to prom. there's no backing out, there's not trading up. same for LOR. [/quote]
