<p>What size envelope should I give my teachers to send the recs in for the commonapp?</p>
<p>The small, standard size ones. I believe they are 4 1/8" x 9 1/2". Stanford and some other schools require full size envelopes.</p>
<p>Besides Stanford, most universities don’t explicitly state the size of the envelopes for the forms to be sent in. I’m just going to follow Stanford’s instructions to use full size envelopes and use them for all the universities that I’m applying to.</p>
<p>Just remember that the larger envelopes require more postage. You don’t want them returned to you or the teacher because you only put on 41 cents!</p>
<p>I gave my English teacher the regular small white ones, but I gave my physics teacher the big yellow ones because he was going to include extra stuff like homework samples, etc. Is that okay? I didn’t see anywhere about letter size specifications…</p>
