<p>This is the problem: one of the teachers i chose to write my recommendation letters has, according to commonapp, chosen to submit the forms via mail. However, he told me that he hasn’t done anything, and that in fact he wishes to submit them electronically. </p>
<p>To make matters worse, he doesn’t seem to be able to connect to his account now. </p>
<p>Is there a way to change this?</p>
<p>I would very much appreciate some advice, as this situation is very exasperating.
FYI, i am from Portugal.</p>
<p>I read somewhere that if you leave email address of the person you are asking for recommendation as blanks then it automatically assumes those to be paper recommendations. So make sure you have correct email address in the field.</p>
<p>Hope this helps. Good luck !</p>
<p>Thanks for the reply, but i didn’t leave it blank. In fact, my professor received the notification emails…</p>
<p>I’m not sure, but I think it might have to do with the amount of time a teacher waits after you send it. Did you send it a really long time ago? If they took too long to access it, maybe it just automatically switched to paper?</p>
<p>I already considered that, but the teacher opened the email and registered 1/2 days after receiving it.</p>
<p>remove him from your list and then resend the request.</p>
