Yeah, you should always write neat for anything even if it's to a friend.


If you write illegibly, it could be sent back to you, or mailed wrong. And I'm pretty sure you don't want your college application going to some old guy, right?

Sorry, but why wouldn't you just write it neatly anyway? Even if you have bad handwriting it's not like it's hard or it will hurt to take the time to write it nice. If your handwriting is so bad that you can't, you need help. Get a handwriting coach or something. I know someone that had to do this, it helped a lot. Anyway, a college isn't going to reject you because your handwriting is a little sloppy. That would be ridiculous. However, you're supposed to write addresses neatly anyway, for the Post Office. If they can't read it, it's not gonna get there. Just write neat. There's no reason to purposely write sloppy now that you've been thinking about it.

I don't think it matters, I mean, as long as it's readable there should be no problem.

Not really as long as you can read it.

I'd say it isn't the most important thing, but it wouldn't hurt. :] The neater and more organized you are, the better impression you'll make. Good luck!
