LOR Confusion

My school does not have a letter filling service so I'm using an online one (Interfolio).
When a school gives you a form for your letter of rec writer to fill out, how does that work? I can't use the service so do I just provide them with a printed copy of the form and a stamped envelope?

Some schools will take interfolio instead of the forms... If you do a search for interfolio (I think in pre-allo), it should help you out.

The only school that does not take interfolio is MSU-COM (out of the schools I applied to, n=11 DO schools).

The safest option is to send an email to the school. Explain that you already got the lor and ask if the interfolio form is sufficient... I assume you made it private (or whatever you call "where you cannot see it")
