Thank you is important
You have been accepted by your college or have been hired for your first real job.
Great and Congratulations!
While writing notes/letters has become a lost art---it is still an important thing to do! You are letting people know how much you appreciate the time they have taken on your behalf. However, you did not get there alone. People have helped you along the way (counselors, teachers, anyone who gave you a recommendation or proofread your essays). Show gratitude and keep the communication open between you and the people who helped you along the way.
It is not hard to do. Follow the guidelines below:
Hand write your note whenever possible
The first sentence should include Thank you.
The second sentence should express how you will benefit from what was done for you
The next sentence should build a connection to the future
Lastly restate your thanks
Sign your name
Address and mail it---You won't be disappointed!
