question about accepting a college's acceptance :)

<p>okay i know you're supposed to let colleges know if you'll be attending my around may 1st (it varies with some colleges).. does the letter telling them this have to be postmarked by then or do they actually have to receive it by then? thanks!</p>

<p>pretty sure it only has to be postmarked by may 1st. but an easier thing to do is just accepting online. that way you don't have to worry about the mail stuff</p>

<p>Because your high school doesn't use a fax machine? Same day notification, receipt in your hand........so easy and done everyday.</p>
