<p>what address should i put on the envelopes for teacher recommendations?</p>
<p>Amherst College
Office of Admission
PO Box 5000
Amherst, MA 01002-5000</p>
<p>You may want to write at the bottom left-hand corner of the envelope:
Teacher Recommendation for rhov + your applicant ID#</p>

<p>on the common app under school details, the address comes up as:</p>
<p>Attention: Admissions Office
PO Box 5000 / 220 S. Pleasant Street
Amherst, MA 01002</p>
<p>I'm confused because it says "attention" (maybe that let's them know it's part of an application), and is the whole zipcode not needed? should i use the address the common app gives or the generic admissions office address? i have the same issue with other schools as well.</p>
<p>I would use the address kwu posted. You probably don't need the longer zipcode, but how much trouble is it write a few extra numbers?</p>
<p>The Pleasant St. address is the physical location of the Admissions Office, and might be useful if you were going to physically visit it, but isn't necessary to mail application materials. Either way, I expect your application will end up in the right place.</p>
<p>All mail to the college (including mail to students) goes through P.O. Box 5000, hence the need to specify the admissions office.</p>
