<p>School Related Activities
Limiting yourself to the space provided, please list (in descending 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>Does this mean they don't want us to attach the resumes at the end?
What kind of documents can we put in Additional Info?</p>
<p>At the same time, are the 6 space given for School Related Activities so much we can put to demonstrate our extracurricular involvement?</p>
<p>I believe they advise against resumes. They see it as a laundry list of things you’ve done, but they’re interested in the things you are most passionate about. That’t why they ask you to list the activities in descending order - to see which activities you’re most involved with.</p>
<p>I also have a doubt regarding this additional space.</p>
<p>I am an international student and my school related activities aren’t just that many. The problem is not with me not enrolling in as many activities as I could, but that the school wouldn’t offer them because there is a clear academic focus. Such school related activities aren’t exactly traditional here as they are in America.</p>
<p>I’m afraid that this could hurt my chances a bit, but I don’t know if it would do any good if I explained my situation to admission officers. Maybe it would sound like “one more lame excuse”. And I know that they take such national differences in consideration and that would be time spent telling them what they already know, but I don’t know to what extent!</p>
