Medical How should I format post-interview thank you letter?

[GoSpursGo]

Hello,

I interviewed Friday at a school I really like. I was told to send the thank you letters to the admissions counselor who coordinated the interview so she can forward them where they need to go. Do I write the letter as a PDF and ask her to send it or do I write it as email to my interviewers and just send it to her?

You're overanalyzing this. Address the letters to your interviewers and send them all to the admissions staff who was your point of contact. It doesn't matter if you send as a PDF, Word document, free-text in the email, or physical card, the sentiment will be conveyed.

I know this is n=1, but I sent handwritten cards to my residency PDs and they liked that. Even had two of them send back cards. I know this is different than med school admissions, but people are people.

Send the card, email, or whatever to your point of contact with it addressed to the interviewer.

Keep it short. Email it directly in the text of the email. Send it quickly so they don’t forget you. That’s it.

Okay. I wanted to send right after but I was told to wait until Monday morning. Was I advised correctly or will this hurt me?

doesn’t matter.

Just send an email.
