what is appropriate to include in a thank you card for someone who wrote you a recommendation? obviously what school you’re attending…but what about the reasoning behind? what about which schools you did get into? anything else?
<p>bump; i'm interested in this too</p>
<p>Along with a thank you card, I gave my GC and my two teachers gift baskets containing items coordinated in the school colors I was accepted to (so like blue and white candles representing Mt. Holyoke, and red and yellow colored candy representing 'SC, etc).</p>
<p>I'm a dork. But all of them really liked the concept and baskets. :)</p>
<p>My daughter bought coffee mugs from the college she finally chose for each of the teacher who wrote recs. She filled them with Hershey's Kisses and gave them to the teachers with a thank you card.</p>
<p>My daughter made a plate of cookies for each. They loved it!</p>
<p>What if...you didn't get into the places that needed recommendations, and only got waitlisted or rejected? How do you write a thank-you for that?</p>
<p>thanks for the ideas...but also, what about what information to include in a thank you note?</p>
