The rep, if they even read the email, will probably realize it was composed on a phone and not think anything of it.

Yes she is required to CC me on all correspondence. Duh

I hope this is a troll response. Otherwise, time to land the helicopter. As AO, I’d be more concerned about this than the email formatting issues.

Are these reps the decision makers or just there to visit schools and answer questions?

Honestly, there are so many differences in email systems and displays, I wouldn’t even think twice about a professional email that arrived looking funky, as long as the content was normal.

I work with academics, and university email systems do all kinds of things to messages in the name of security. I generally don’t assume what I’m seeing is what they saw before the sent it.

Move on! Let go!

I would be surprised if the rep spends enough time looking at the email to notice the missing spaces.

i think it’s fine. the rep has probably seen tons of poorly formatted/grammatically bad/awful spelling emails. S/he knows they are dealing with teenagers and probably doesn’t expect a perfect email.

That’s a good thing!

I think those fake questions are worse and transparent. Like most can answered online or calling the school. A thank you that is short and sweet is easy enough and polite. Most kids have no manners these days.

Omg, please detach. For your sanity and your kid’s.

Just let it go. It's not like her letter will be noted in their permanent file and distributed to every university around the world.
