How to send the letters of recommendation? My school has an electronic way of sending them, but the deadline is 07-01, and I have only two letter that will be sent to the premed office by that date, 😱 the rest of the letters will be probably done after that date so I wont be able to use the services of the premed office and I ll have to send them on my own.So the question is how is that done? Do I provide the writters with adresses of schools and they send it to the schools or what?Also, is there going to be a problem with sending half of stuff through electronically and half my snail mail?

I just found out my school doesn't have a collection service. I will call interfolio tomorrow and find out what they are all about. The website doesn't tell you very much about their services.

Interfolio is commonly used, but other acceptable methods of submitting your LORs include:
-faxing them
-hand delivering them
-UPS
-USPS
-Pony Express
-Carrier pigeon
-Smoke signals (if you're applying for an Indian Health Service scholarship, this is mandatory)
-Morse code via that new "wireless telegraph"
-Inside a large wooden horse left outside the door of the Admissions office
-Tagging the Dean of Admissions car with spray paint and leaving your LOR under the windshield wiper

Do I get to send the letters and the writer just seals the envelopes and signs them, or do I get envelopes adressed and the writer just seals them and signs them across the sealing? I am not sure how that goes.

How did you guys do it?

Uhhh it would be so much easier If I was not the procrastinator!!!!!!! 😀
