  • Summary

  • It used to be: Make good grades, get good SAT scores, write a good essay, and you were on your way to a good college. Now? Kiss that world goodbye. Merit isn’t a sure thing. Connections are everything. And money talks– a lot.

    Enter Kelly Pritzker (Abbi Jacobson), a shrewd, New Jersey-based college “consultant” who isn’t above faking athletic profiles, seducing administrators, greasing palms, and juicing GPAs. When it comes to getting the under-qualified and uber-privileged into the Ivy League, Kelly’s the closest thing you’ll find to a guarantee...If you can afford her, that is.

    But after an admissions scandal breaks on the West Coast, anonymous letters start appearing in Kelly’s mailbox, threatening to take down her entire operation. And when a mysterious teenager, Hadley (Whitney Peak), shows up at her door, a revelation about both of their pasts starts to upend Kelly's present…

    Starring Abbi Jacobson (Broad City, A League of Their Own), Whitney Peak (Gossip Girl), Susie Essman (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Judy Greer (Archer), Timothy Simons (Veep), the Sklar Brothers (Dumb People Town), and written and directed by Aaron and Will Eisenberg (Comedy Central's Cursed Friends), Big Envelopes is a razor-sharp satire that delivers a peek behind the ivy curtain of the 10-billion-dollar college admissions industry.

    For Kelly, getting kids into school is easy. It’s staying out of jail that’s the hard part.
