<p>I was deferred during SCEA and I'm really hoping that I get in during the regular decision round (of course I have my mind open to other colleges). I am planning to write a letter to Yale reiterating my interest, in addition to mentioning some new leadership positions I have taken and maintaining my 4.0 after taking rigorous courses my first semester. The problem is I don't know exactly where to address the email. I've read here and there that you should send it to a representative in your area, but I have also heard that I should send it to the Yale office of admissions. Could anyone clarify this process or perhaps show me to a link that could explain it?</p>

<p>Is my type of letter considered an application update or simply a letter that should be sent to my admission officer…? I’m still confused :/</p>
<p>I think your letter falls under the general “updates” as entomom cites. I’d suggest faxing it.</p>
<p>Don’t forget to put your Student ID number on it! I would suggest first emailing the Admissions Office asking them if they want it faxed, emailed, mailed, etc. just in case. When I emailed them they got back to me pretty quick.</p>
<p>^The link I provided gives full instructions about what to include in your message so that they can identify you. And what didn’t carry over in my quote was the giant ! in front of that sentence, so it’s pretty clear that they want updates faxed.</p>
<p>Agree with T26E4, you’ve already sent in your application, so just about anything you send now is an update.</p>
