i was wondering, do i staple the application together if i am sending it via mail... or do i just put the application in the envelope. the instructions don't specify how to put it together.

thanks

I wouldn't staple, makes it hard to pass through the shredder.

Sorry, but that was pretty funny.

OP, concentrate more on making sure that your essays shine and don't reference the wrong school. Whether you staple your app or not won't make a lick of difference. Good luck.

I hear they have industrial staple-eating shredders just for that case. Better encase it in titanium! Then they'll have to accept!

Agreed.

But if it makes you feel any better OP - I stapled all of mine unless they specified not to. If you're really worried you can paper clip it. The best of both worlds! Connected, yet easily separated to add to a file!

Ah the paper clip. I agree with this advice.

I'm also a fan of post-it style adhesive for photos in case they want to separate that too.

I paperclipped them before but didn't do anything this round.

I just pictured some lady's desk with 4000 paperclips all over it

Ever worked in an office? You don't seem to understand the joy of free paperclips.

She should be grateful. There are never any paperclips when you need them in life.
