<p>Does Dartmouth prefer the common application sent via mail or the internet?</p>
<p>they will take it either way you send it. The good thing about sending the common app online is that you get a receipt right away that the school has received your application. Should you decide to send via snail mail, i would suggest putting a stamped self addressed post card in with your application with the other side saying received by (& date) so that way the admissions office could mail the post card back once they get it</p>
<p>it won’t affect your admissions one way or another. But, administratively, most colleges now prefer an online submission since it is easier for them. For example, they can easily make xx copies by pushing a button to print them, as opposed to having a clerk stand over a copier to make file copies.</p>
