How to submit LORs

How is everyone submitting their LORs? Are you having them sent to you and then sending them to the schools? Or having them sent to your undergrad school and having the school send them? How does waiving your right to see them play into this? If you have them sent to you and then send them, how does the school know you're waiving your right?

any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

If you still want to be on decent terms with your letter recommenders, I recommend you use a letter-writing service either through your school or an independent agency. If you the people writing your recs have to make 20-some copies for you then they'll not be pleased. With a school service, they usually have a cover sheet that can allow you to sign to waive your right of access when you set up a file. Then, you give the signed cover sheet to your writers, they send the letter with the cover sheet in a signed envelope (that's been pre-addressed and stamped by you) to the service, and that's all they have to do. The school takes the responsibility of copying and sending all the letters to the schools you designate. It's nifty, affordable, and very easy.

Would we send the letters to the address that is in the Medical School Admission Requirements. And should it say anything else in the address like attn: so and so?
