Additional Information and WashU

Transfer Students

<p>In the Add Info section of the Common Application is it alright to add an essay that shows a different side to me than the Why Transfer? essay.</p>

<p>Just wondering what others are including in that section.</p>

<p>Also, in one of my classes the professor is supposed to be making a grade change from a B+ to an A-. WashU starts evaluating applicants from the 15th on a first come first serve basis. Should I go ahead and send the transcript in and ask my professor to notate on his recommendation the grade change. It will be reflected in a mid year summary for sure. Makes a difference in GPA- goes from 3.48 to 3.54.</p>

<p>hey, i personally think that's a good idea dearsiryes. i don't really buy into all this "don't send too much extra information" stuff. i'm sending extra let recs for all my schools that use the common app and maybe even another essay. anything extra that you can give the school (that strengthens your app.), in my opinion, will only help.</p>
