Do you guys buy anything extra when you mail your secondaries? (i.e. Priority delivery, confirmation, certification, etc)
 
I always spent the $16 to send it overnight. That way it required a signature, got confirmation, and showed the adcoms I meant business. Ha ha, it was probably a waste at a lot of schools. However when I was able to finish a secondary in 1 day and return it the next, that was a 2 day turn around. Impressive I think so.
 
i just go standard usps 🙄.. i add a post-it in every envelope listing exactly what was included in each envelope though.. just in case
 
Most of the time, I just stick it in the snail mail. It's not THAT slow for just a standard envelope. I mail it priority if it's bigger, just to be safe. I've always included a cover letter just to make sure they're not overlooking anything like a check.
 
I just mailed the secondaries with regular mail.They went through fine.
 
I used certified mail for all first-class mails and delivery confirmation for all priority mails. I sent all mid & east-coast schools using priority and every west coast schools using first-class. I am from CA. so far i spent 3500 on application alone, $2 extra is nothing.
