<p>columbia explicitly stated that they prefer online applications because they are more convenient; however, i woudl like to include an activities resume, because i feel that it would help me in admissions</p>
<p>so can I send that in separately by mail since there isn't a place to attach it on the columbia online app?</p>
<p>thanks guys!</p>
<p>There is an additional information section where you can attach that sort of thing I believe.</p>
<p>i sent an activities resume by mail. i guess it wouldn't hurt.</p>
<p>But it says...</p>
<p>"School Related Activities
Limiting yourself to the space provided, please list (in order of importance to you) the activities to which you have given your time (within your school setting). Please refrain from submitting additional information."</p>
<p>columbia is VERY stingy about sending additional info unless its ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. considering you're putting all of your ECs on Part II of the application, i wouldn't send an activities resume</p>
<p>what about if you want to explain what you do in some of the activities? like you can't get much about an obscure club from just its title..</p>
<p>Then where do I put down voluntary work?</p>
<p>It's too late now, but I mentioned very specific things to my counselor and teachers writing recommendations (both were specifically involved in some of my extracurricular activities) to elaborate on in their letters to clarify activities/add additional information.</p>
