<p>i submitted my ED application already (duh), but I recently found out that I placed first in a science competition in Biology. Since i wanna major in biology, do you think i should call them and let them know about this award, or is it not worth bothering them about?</p>
<p>thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Sure, if you already don't have any awards to back up the fact that you were involved in Bio club or whatever it is.</p>
<p>But I think, if not and you already have a plethora of awards, you don't need to call them since it's not like it'll be a huge factor that will push you over either side of the admissions fence.
Usually, they need updates if you become a leader of a club, get a change in immigration status, have a change in finances, etc.</p>
<p>But call them if you really want to, they're friendly people.</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure calling doesn't do anything. I think you need to fax them a letter sort of thing (making sure to include that ID number they emailed us with).
And I say go ahead, it can only help.</p>
