adding to application after submitted

Applying to College
1

<p>I have already submitted all my applications, but yesterday I found out that I won a Gold Key award for my photography. I know that this isn't the most selective/competitive program out there, but do you think I should inform colleges of my award? My main college essay is about photography, and I sent in a photo supplement--but I hadn't won any awards for it, so I think this might sort of legitimize my interest. I don't know.</p>

<p>If it matters, I'm applying to a mix of liberal arts colleges and private universities that are mostly top 25ish on whatever that ranking system is.</p>

<p>Thanks for any help!</p>

<p>Also, if anyone knows how I would let colleges know about things like this (email, letter, etc), I would love to be enlightened.</p>

<p>I would simply e-mail the admissions of the colleges you applied to. Include an attachment that is basically a note detailing your award, how it applies to your supplement, etc. Kindly ask the admissions department to include the note with your supplemental photography or your application folder.</p>
