The deadline for the current round just got over.. Does anyone have an idea whether there is a 2-3 day margin for submitting recommendations? The website says that "It is your responsibility to ensure that all required recommendations are submitted by the deadline date for the round in which you apply." Kaushinside - They give your recommenders about 24 hours after the deadline to get them in. All 3 of mine actually submitted late, 6 hours after the deadline, but it turned out alright.

Good luck to all those submitting for Round 2! It is crazy to think that it was less than four months back that I was in your shoes - it feels like it has been much longer!

Can someone advise me if this will damage my chance at HBS in someway? Would really appreciate a response to cool me down. Thanks. I wouldn't stress about it. I wonder if they can even tell the difference between 11 and 12 pt fonts. And, if they can, what can you do about it now? Nothing. So - sit tight. I think you'll be okay!

Hah! Thanks, Esdykes. I've been trying to keep myself off these forums and not even think about the wait. As you can tell, I have been fairly unsuccessful so far. Its going to be a long couple of months.

Talked to HBS this morning and they said there was a 48 hour window for recommenders to submit. Hope that helps!

I submitted my application in time but one of my recommendation writers is having problems submitting his recommendation. He says it won't let him upload a file for some reason. He put in a tech support ticket, but he still hasn't received a response. I hope they still accept his recommendation and don't push me back a round.
