<p>If you have just gotten an important award, and want to update some colleges on it, are you supposed to mail a letter with this one update. Or more easily just email the update??</p>
<p>People in the past have recommended mailing in a letter, so it's more easily filed with the rest of your application. Email should work too, but perhaps is more easily overlooked?</p>
<p>yeah, that's exactly what i was thinking. This award is quite important so i will mail a letter, a short one</p>
<p>I've emailed schools my updates, and generally have had very quick updates that the info was added to my file.</p>
