<p>In the colleges' supplements(online), there are boxes for "additional information".
Do you think I can add an additional(or extra) essay on that?</p>
<p>Yes, but only if it is important and it hasn't been covered in the previous essays.</p>
<p>What's the difference between the "Additional Information" on the supplements and the Additional Information of the actual CommonApp? Does it matter which one we use to add in addition info?</p>
<p>I would resist the urge to put in another essay. Remember how many of these essays the admissions folks read every day. Do you really want someone to look at your application and think, "Oh ****, another essay"?</p>
<p>bump for my above question</p>
<p>The difference is that the "Additional Info" on the Common App should be stuff you want all the schools to know about you. That way, editing that information for each school will be minimal, if at all. The "Additional Info" on the supplement should be stuff you want to say specifically to that school, and probably won't send to the most of the others.</p>
<p>I agree with Chedva. Perhaps something about your desire to attend that specific school, i.e, the reasons why.</p>
