<p>how can you get the personal data to print on the Arts Supplement? </p>
<p>Do you have to print and mail the Arts Supplement form along with resume, etc; i.e this is not an online submission? If you do this, then the common app ID does not print on the form and there is no place to manually input it either.</p>
<p>Thanks for any help!</p>
<p>It has worked for us. I think you have to fill out the personal data on each college’s individual “future plans” section and indicate that you plan to submit an arts supplement. Then your data is placed on their arts supplement form. If you submit the supplement it on line, it appears that you also must submit your portfolio on line. There is an option to print out the supplement and mail it to schools with a physical portfolio (i.e. dvd, slides).</p>
<p>thank you studiomom. </p>
<p>D is getting a very strong letter of recom for her arts supplement, but she doesn’t have a very strong portfolio of awards etc. only a 10 year commitment to her art form. Should she then only send the recom as a supplemental recom and not do the Arts supplement? Or, are they expecting an Arts supplement form so they know to look for recom etc related to the Arts?</p>
<p>Her resume will show depth of commitment but maybe not extraordinary talent, what would you suggest?</p>
<p>Thanks for your help.</p>
<p>lovemom- from what i know, if the school allows optional and supplemental letters of rec, you can, but some colleges say that theye strongly discourage extra letters.</p>
<p>and also, if your daughter decides to do the arts supplement, i’ve heard from multiple college counselors that it could actually work AGAINST someone who doesnt have extraordinary talent. basically they think that their time was wasted… but personally, if its a school that you think you dont have a really good chance at getting in, i’d still take the risk. heh heh.</p>
<p>not sure where else to ask… but i know that to turn in the arts supplement for music in PAPER, you have to send in a CD of your instrument. But online, they ask for a web link instead. Does this mean that if I do the supp online, i only make a web llink and NOT send in a CD?
Thank you</p>
<p>newnonstop91: O_O “Extraordinary talent”?!?!?!?!
I’m submitting it because Music is my main extracurricular activity…
Would this work against me?
And you don’t send in a CD, but i’m replying like, 3 months after your post.</p>
