<p>On the application there is an optional "additional information" field where the instructions are:
"Is there any additional information you want the Admission Committee to consider when your application is reviewed? If so, please describe"
Should I fill this out, and if so, what type of stuff do I put? Is it about my personal life, academics, etc. Also, how long should it be (the limit is 500 words).</p>
<p>i don;t think that section allows 500 words. your essay should be no more than 500 words. that section as i recall should be 500 characters.</p>
<p>The section does allow 500 words, but it is seperate from the essay. This just wants to know any other info you would like to give the admissions people, not an essay.</p>
