Arts Supplements or Common App Arts Supplement or....?

[Thursday8]

<p>Stanford considers an Arts Supplement, but most other schools don't mention them. Don't most schools accept recordings or art? Do they want a school-specific form or the Common App Arts Supplement?
If they don't use the CAAS, what is it for?</p>

<p>P.S. I will be submitting my application online. Does that mean my music teacher will have to submit a recommendation online? she doesn't really like using the internet..</p>

<p>If it’s helpful, here are some of the colleges that I am applying to:
USC
Claremont Mckenna
Stanford
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo
Swarthmore
UC Berkeley or UCSD</p>

<p>If using the CA, the letter of recommendation can be submitted by mail, but should reference the student’s name, birthday and CAID number.</p>

<p>You will need to look at each school specifically to see their requirements for submitting a supplement for music. For example, here is what USC says:</p>

Application Guidelines
The deadline for all first-year and transfer music majors is December 1, 2012. All required departmental materials must be received by the Thornton Admission office by this date.
The Thornton departmental section in the USC Supplement to the Common Application is required for all majors.
An audition is required for most majors.
Visit the USC Thornton School website or refer to the USC Supplement to the Common Application for audition dates and requirements

<p>However, for Swarthmore, it looks like they want a CD of your music:
