<p>Do you think it's unneccesary to make a new e-mail address just for college apps? I have two working e-mail address atm, and they're both filled with junk mail that I never bothered clearing... (yeah, kinda bad, I know) But since I am applying online and some schools even send admit/reject/etc e-mails, is it okay to open a new e-mail address just for that purpose? </p>
<p>They don't track you through the e-mail address you used for collegeboard or anything like that...</p>
<p>if you're asking, should you create an appropriate e-mail address for college, that's a good thing. cause i did make a new e-mail address for college. </p>
<p>"<a href="mailto:2hot4urpants@aol.com">2hot4urpants@aol.com</a>" didnt work on the apps.</p>
<p>if you're asking if you should make a new e-mail address to just handle your junk that you get from signing up from sketchy on-line sites then i think it's also fine, as long as you dont trash that too</p>
<p>IMO when it comes to listing an e-mail for colleges, scholarships and jobs, it's a good idea to have a professional sounding e-mail such as yourfirstname.lastname@whateverservice instead of the silly/sexy/weird/difficult to remember e-mails that most people use for their friends and family. Use that particular e-mail only for things related to school and work.</p>
<p>actually, if you can come up with something clever and intelligent .. ;)</p>
<p>but i agree, it's a very good idea to use a separate email, just as an organizational bonus. n_n</p>
<p>what if you put something like "<a href="mailto:reallywant2go2harvard@yahoo.com">reallywant2go2harvard@yahoo.com</a>"? I would never do that.</p>
<p>it's probably just some secretary who types the name into the computer, i doubt a name like <a href="mailto:please4harvard@perfect.com">please4harvard@perfect.com</a> is going to help you any</p>
<p>heh i just used my regular ole email (uyulove@whatevanessfsdfs).. but then again i was going abandon it afterwards for gmail XP I say make a new one.. its going to help you organinze and stuff. XD</p>
