<p>I just had a college interview with an alumni this week, and I'm TRYING to send him a thank-you note via snailmail, but I haven't his address. (I have his phone number and email.) Will an emailed thank-you suffice, or what should I do?</p>
<p>An email thank you should suffice.</p>
<p>if the phone number is his office, suggest you call the Admin Asst or the Company's general number (try 411) and just say: I'd like to send a letter to Mr. so and so. Could you please verify his correct mailing address?</p>
<p>Otherwise, an e-mail will have to do...</p>
<p>Dizzy-son had this same quandary. I had originally reminded him to request the interviewer's business card at the interview so that he would have the address, but he forgot. So he called the alum and asked for his mailing address, which the alum was kind enough to provide. In our case, we did not have the e-mail option. I think handwritten notes make a better impression, but from what I've read here, your alumni interview will not make or break your acceptance.</p>
<p>Can I email him and ask for his address? </p>
<p>I did ask for a business card but he didn't have one with.</p>
<p>An email thank you is just fine. The main idea is to write one and not wait much longer. The format of the letter is not as crucial as the thought that goes into it.</p>
<p>I agree that an email thank-you is fine. That's better than an email asking for his address so that you can send a note by snail mail.</p>
