If anything changes in the future regarding college student aid or debt-free college, I’ll need to reach you immediately to let you know. The way I’ll reach you will be through my free email newsletter.
Here’s how to add me to your email “safe senders” list.
A “safe senders” list is a record of approved email addresses or domains you want to receive emails from. When you add jeannie@jeannieburlowski.com to this “safe senders” list, you’re instructing your email system to not filter out email from me. This ensures that my newsletter gets delivered directly to your inbox.
Adding me to your email “safe senders” list (or your contacts) takes only a minute. To help you with the process, I’m providing a list of step-by-step instructions for the largest email providers. If, after adding me to your address book, you still do not receive my newsletters, look for it in your updates folder, promotions folder, spam folder, junk folder, or bulk folder. If it’s there, please open the message and mark it “Not Spam” or “Not Junk” to prevent future emails from being misdirected.

- Open your Gmail Contacts list. Here’s how you do that. Look in the upper right hand corner of your Gmail screen. See the nine dots arranged in a box shape? (It looks a little like a telephone keypad.) Click there. Now look in the box that results, and you’ll see “Contacts.” Click that. (If you are a Google Apps user, click Mail and then Contacts. Contacts are also available at www.google.com/contacts.)
- Now click the “Create Contact” button in the top-left corner.
- In the field labeled “Name” enter: Jeannie Burlowski.
- In the field labeled “Email” enter: jeannie@jeannieburlowski.com
- Click “save” to confirm.
Now hold on—there’s one more step for Gmail. There’s a chance that your emails from me may be delivered to your Promotions tab or your Updates tab. To move me to the front of your inbox, select my email by clicking the tiny dots to the very left of my email as you view it in your inbox. Drag and drop my email into your “Primary” tab. (You’ll see a little hand—just make sure that little hand goes into your “Primary” tab.) After moving my email, a message will ask if you want to move all future messages from jeannie@jeannieburlowski.com to your Primary inbox. Click ‘Yes’ to confirm the change.
