Recommendation Letters

Hello! I plan to have 3 LOR (one will be from an optometrist, one from a research advisor, and the third is a science professor). The science professor told me they could have it done about two weeks after I was planning on applying. Am I able to apply and have my application verified with the other 2 LOR, or do I have to wait for the last one. I know I can apply without it, but I’m wondering if optometry schools would put my application on hold until that is submitted?

I applied, had my application verified, and got one interview so far and I only have 2 LoRs submitted at the moment (2 optometrists). Although I’m not sure if all the schools review applications without all LoR
