If you fill out and print an application using Adobe Acrobat, do you just sent it in a regular envelope? I know they give you a specific envelope when they sent you a paper application, but what kind of envelope do you use if you print out an application?

DOESN"T MATTER. as long as you put everything the "specific envelope" might have.

Don't you use the click/send type of mail? What's with the snail mail question? You should have the snail mail for your recs and perhaps your teachers can fax them in. I just don't get your question? Where do you live?

The question makes perfect sense. If you print out PDF application forms, what envelope do you send them in?

I assume you use an A4 envelope rather than one of those small ones where you fold the paper up 3 times to fit it in?

Some of the Universities scan the forms using some OCR software and as such it would be wise to send the forms in a large envelope without folding them. In fact some Universities advice this eg UIUC.
