Pressing SUBMIT

Your application deadlines are approaching and it is time to check the status of your applications.  You may need to send out a friendly reminder to your recommenders if the due date is coming up and they haven’t submitted their letters of recommendation.  (Dear Professor, Did you get a chance to submit the letter of recommendation for my graduate school applications?  The deadline is next week Thursday and I wanted to make sure that you were not having problems uploading the document.  Thank you again for taking the time to write me letter.  Enjoy your weekend!  Sincerely, Your Name….  Your professors are people too, so do not feel too intimidated to send them a reminder!)  Also check to make sure that your transcripts have been received and all of your documents – writing samples, statements of purpose, etc. – have uploaded properly.  

Don’t forget to save a few paychecks to cover the costs of submitting all of these applications!  

Press submit!!  You did it!!!!!!!
