packets

by: PNM 2015

I saw someone post something about how if our packets weren't in by the end of school, then we're late. Is this true?? Some of mine have been mailed, but the earliest deadline I saw was July 31st, so I told my recommenders that there wasn't a rush to get them done...

You should be fine, don't worry. It's more of a courtesy to let rec writers know as soon as possible that you're interested so they have enough time to look over everything. Some of my writers had 15-20 girls to write recs for and had young kids to look after and a job, and she liked to meet PNMs in person so getting in contact with her mid-April was a way to schedule all 20 of us throughout the weekends in the summer.

An advantage of getting your rec in early is so houses get a longer look at you, whereas if you're one of the 100 recs per day that we get in later in the summer, it's much easier for you to slip through the cracks, especially if you're not a legacy or don't have connections.

She's not asking whether she needs recs or not though... And your grammar, seriously...

Learn how to use grammar!!! You're (not your) probably not even in a sorority here -- And you're ( not your) IN a house not at a house. I think you're ( not your) in middle school or a stupid HS girl. English lesson of the day ---
YOU'RE means you are ( contraction) and your is a possesive adjective- MEANING showing possession. Go back to school and study before acting like you're ( not your) going to college. You're (not your) not A&M material.
Bye now little one.

So as long as my packets (including the recommendations) are mailed in by the beginning of July, I should be okay?

If your recommendation writer mails it in by the beginning of July you should be okay. Remember, your don't send in your recommendation, your writer does directly. You should have sent your recommendation packet to your writer (which includes your photo and resume and whatever else she needs) already or ASAP.
