<p>Just curious if anyone here got in early without doing the two JHU essays. I didn't do them (thought they were really optional until I visited this forum ... lol).</p>
<p>I submitted all my apps last week and thought I was finished with all this college app essay writing ... <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>Not to burst your bubble or anything, but weren't those required? And if you didn't finish, I think you can still submit the supplement (up to two weeks after you submit part I).</p>
<p>No worries man.</p>
<p>I'm guessing you did the common app, sjyaung?</p>
<p>dude, in case u havent gotten the hint from everyone who got in early and laxfan.......DO THE TEN DOLLAR ESSAY.
unless ur the no.1 lacross player in the country with a 2400 sat, do the essay
(slightly exaggerating....but like seriously, do the essay)</p>
<p>You can still submit essays up to two weeks after they're due. You can still write them.</p>
<p>Slorg
can you tell me where you got that information//</p>
<p>it said it on the blog, but I'm wondering- should I just submit the common app supplement and write "Will submit extra essays by mail?"</p>
<p>I got in ED doing the common app. I didn't do the $10 essay.</p>
<p>opps, my theory was proved wrong. lol
dkball, u must be amazing</p>
<p>the $10 essay isn't required?!?!</p>
<p>if your doing common app then it's not... but they STRONGLY ENCOURAGE you to do it...</p>
<p>AND.. i submitted the $10 essay through mail;)</p>
<p>haha not quite... baseball recruit though.</p>
<p>So your theory was partially correct.</p>
<p>so, is the other common app choice required (the one about your fave class or something).</p>
<p>If you are doing the common app then just do what it says lol.</p>
<p>no, neither are required, tho both strongly recommended, esp the ten dollar one.
if ur here and u havent done the essays yet, go to the essays and stop reading cc!! :)</p>
<p>urrr.. okay. if your doing common app, common app essay is required..
and two supplemental JHU essays-$10, influencial class-are optional (STRONGLY ENCOURAGE you to do it though..)</p>
<p>Yes, I did the common app online. I guess I'll mail in a $10 essay in the next few days. Thanks for the feedback guys! btw, why can't they just say it's "required"? on the supplement, it just says "the Admissions Committee welcomes the chance to read additional essays on the following two topics." lol</p>
<p>Thanks again! :D</p>
<p>Well, it says we STRONGLY RECOMMEND you write these essays. Can't get any more clear than that.</p>
<p>um. what college is this for? i've never seen the ten dollar essay.poop/</p>
<p>Where does it say strongly recommends? I see, "welcomes the chance" too on my common app supplement.</p>
