<p>send the note.
keep it short and simple.
simple paper, simple message, simple “thank you for your time and consideration of my application for the united states naval academy.”
no colored paper, note cards, fancy stationary or perfume-scented stock.
Plain and white (or ivory, your choice), with neat HANDWRITTEN note.
DON’T send money.</p>
<p>Remember- you are seeking to be an “officer and a gentleman.” Consider this a “must do” on the gentleman side of things.</p>
<p>IMO.</p>
<p>ps… if you think sending a simple thankyou note is “sucking up,” just wait until I-day!!! ;)</p>
