I'm not going to submit my apps until after the September LSAT, but I don't want my applications to be held up because of dean's letters. So if my UG sends the letter now will law schools hold on to them until they get my full application? How does that work?
I'm curious too

our applications won't be considered complete without a dean's letter, correct?

I thought this was just if you have C&F issues, normally you submit cert before enrolling after applying and being accepted

(someone else correct me if I'm wrong)

I have some minor C& F issues I need to disclose for schools like Duke, Cornell, and Colombia.

Since these schools require a dean's letter with your application if you have C&F issues to disclose, I'm trying to figure out when in my app cycle I should tell my UG to send out my Dean's Letters. I don't want my application to be held up for while my UG processes my dean's letter requests.

I thought certain schools want them regardless.

I thought Stanford.

Not before applying. I didn't send any to the t14 last cycle

so we should wait until they have our applications on file before sending Dean's Letters?

I was just saying no schools want them without c&f issues, it shouldn't matter when you send the certificate
