What does this mean :| ?

<p>My message to admissions' help :</p>

<p>Hi,
Is it permissible to have my school fax the secondary school report and
other school forms to the admissions' office? (Since here we have to bear
the postal costs ourselves, and if fax is allowed that would be relief)</p>

<h2>Thanks :)</h2>

<p>Their reply:</p>

<p>Yes, they can fax them to us or send them to us via email.</p>

<p>My question ..... how email? :| ?</p>

<p>I suppose the transcipt program has the option of saving the report as a .pdf. If that’s the case, the school would simply make the .pdf and attach it to the message.</p>

<p>^ yeah, as an attachment. Your counselor will either fill out the online form and attach that, or attach the school profile they already have on file. And they told you you can FAX as you originally wanted to - so why not do that?</p>

<p>If your counselor is unfamiliar with email (and I can’t believe that there are ANY HS counselors who would fit that description) or prefers not to FAX for some reason, go ahead and pay the postal costs - at 42 cents a stamp, paying your counselor to send out a school profile and recommendation to ten schools would only cost you $4.20 total. When asking teachers for recommendations you are supposed to be including stamped pre-addressed envelopes anyway, just do the same for your counselor.</p>

<p>nah, I’m international, So I’ll go with fax, i guess. Can’t trust people with PDFs though :slight_smile: fax seems ok.</p>

<p>Ha! Okay, that makes a lot more sense! (Thought you were being excessively thrifty!!!) Yeah, go with the FAX.</p>
