<p>How would you write an e-mail to an admission office without looking like a dork? And how would you reply?</p>
<p>Write it professionally. Use capital letters, punctuation, and spell check. You want to make a good impression. I'd say make it short and sweet, they haven't got all day for your one e-mail.</p>
<p>I don't think that they'll ever consider you a 'dork'... they've probably heard it all before. Keep in mind you're talking to educated adults here.</p>
<p>Yeah that is what I was wondering. I am always short and direct. I thought I sounded rude :D But hey it turned out to be the best way ;)</p>
