These changes you are making will be welcome news to our students across the country. Many times they are in different cities. They have moved from home, and many times it's their first time away. They may not even know where the local post office is. Sometimes they don't have the ID they need.
Do you think this will really streamline things and in fact make things a lot easier for them? Aren't you more used to communicating and executing things online anyway? I know most universities now have a totally online application process. Don't you think this brings an almost archaic system in line with today's ability to use the Internet and use electronic means of verification?
