Any advice and recommendations are greatly appreciated.IF you have a walmart near u (or many other plaaces) they take Moneygram.

I was rejected for using the wrong font and having incorrect margin sizes. I don't think they even read my 4 page draft --which sucks, because I spent all week doing the background research for it.
