<p>Hi, I am applying RD. What is Columbia looking for in the additional information section? Can this be an extra essay or is it only reserved for special circumstances, such as new immigrants, international, hard home life that kept students from academics, etc.?</p>
<p>i dont know what the additional information section is...</p>
<p>Yeah, I definitely don't remember that either.</p>
<p>I'm doing the online app, it's the very last section.</p>
<p>basically you should put anything in the additional info section that you think would beneficial to your application or that you think would explain some drop in grades on your transcript.</p>
<p>there is no freakin additional section....and dont use it even IF there is....(im 99% sure there isnt)</p>
<p>There definitely is. I used it just to note that I've done quite a few translations.</p>
<p>Yes there is an additional info section, I just included some stuff about my research paper and publication.</p>
<p>I'm putting in the situation with my Calc teacher who left halfway through the year and taught us about 1/2 the curriculum we needed for the AP exam...hence my 2 on the exam. I'm also explaining that my Spanish classes I took were honors even though the second language department at my school doesn't allow them to be put down as honors on the transcript.</p>
<p>ohhh f u c k.....lol......no are you serious there is a place for additional information?...is it only online or on paper as well?.....oh...maybe its only online!</p>
<p>Thanks. I got the idea.</p>
