<p>i know i'm throwing out a completely random question but when applying, is there a preference in terms of applying by mail or online? do the college admissions really care? one of my friends told me it was better to apply by mail because they could see your handwriting or something, but that sounds totally ridiculous.</p>
<p>they do not care</p>
<p>They do prefer the online applications, but it doesn't really matter. Do what you want.</p>
<p>Online's better. They receive it earlier, and that's always good.</p>
<p>thanx! thats what i was planning to do...</p>
