I'm mailing my resume in with my application.
Is it acceptable to use plain white paper or should it be on high-quality resume paper?

Unless you are mailing in your entire application, I would heartily suggest uploading your resume.

It's for McCombs and unfortunately mailing the resume is the only option.

As long as the content is presentable and readable it shouldnt really matter

Instead focus on choosing a proper font layout so that all details are easy to read.

Well, I'd figure uploading too, but barring that I'd say use high quality resume paper - why not right? Worst case, you look as good as everyone else. Best case, you look a little more professional than those who didn't. Besides, since they can't meet you (yet), you want to exude that "I'm michael j fox from the secret of my success" kind of feeling - a resume on nice paper, although a tiny issue, helps maintain that perception.

I'd try and avoid those with the watermarks if you can, but it's hard to find some that dont have them.
