I applied to 6 schools for plant-related or soil science MS programs. Visited two of them (I initiated contact) during their finals week and think they went well. A prof at one school talked to me for nearly 2 hours, but I don’t know if that’s a sign of anything specific, so I won’t get my hopes up. A couple of them asked me to send them my resume and transcripts, and asked if I had submitted my application. Otherwise, I have heard nothing.

One of my recommenders has not submitted any of his letters, although he agreed to do so. Does anyone know what effect will that have on applications when one of the three recommenders doesn’t submit?

Good luck to all of us!!!
