Hey all. So, a while back I requested 3 copies of my transcript and 3 letters of intent graduation. I received them a few days ago and I've yet to open the semi-big white and brown envelopes that come with them. My question is are all the transcript copies (and again, the intent letters) loosely together in the (brown or white) envelope or are they all sealed inside smaller individual envelopes inside the bigger envelope? I don't want to accidentally open the big envelopes to find out the copies are all not sealed in smaller envelopes because I need to mail a copy or two to some schools and I'm sure they won't like it if transcripts and what not aren't sealed. Can anyone with experience doing this share? Thanks a bunch!

My transcripts all came in individual white envelopes that were sealed with an official sticker. No idea about the letters of intent to graduate, though.
If you only have one envelope, then you have no choice but to open it, unless you plan on sending a school three copies of everything :/

Do you know if schools typically dislike it if you mail the transcripts in without it being sealed in an envelope? I'm assuming the transcripts and intent letters have the mac symbol at the top left corner (I see them on the intent letter through the envelope) so it could be okay? =/

Most schools require the sealed envelopes.
