attn: ucla students and lor service

Hey Guys,
When you're sending your letters of rec out, are you using basic mail or priority mail?

 

[Jalby]

Basic. Unless you have a deadline, they take about a week (at least last year) to process, then I would assume about 3 days to actually travel through the mail.

i had a ? about this, but didn't want to start a new thread. i just read that for each school, in addition to the $8 for first two and $4 for each additional, we have to pay $5 per school so they'll stick our amcas id on it. that's what i get for asking LOR writers for my letters before having an amcas id. am i wrong about this? i hope so.

hey pocwana,
don't worry about the amcas id on your letter of recs, they have to understand that some people got letters before they applied with amcas.

thanks kid. i just don't want my letters to get lost b/c they don't have my amcas id.
