<p>They are printed out and read.</p>
<p>Thanks adrivit…that makes a difference in how much to present!!!</p>
<p>Question: For most colleges, they ask you to list out your three options for major. Well, I’m planning to apply Undecided…so would that mean I should not fill out the other two options? Or is it wiser/better/preferable to just list out all the majors that you were considering after choosing Undecided as Option 1?</p>
<p>Thanks in Advance!</p>
<p>My advice: Don’t give undecided, atleast type in something, tho that may change after you get to college, doesn’t matter.</p>
<p>I have to disagree with adrivit. Undecided is the most popular major selected, and many colleges actually like undecideds. It means that they are open to exploration.</p>
<p>You can choose Undecided as Option 1 and then choose something you might be interested in, or you can leave the others blank.</p>
<p>As one MIT adcom once said, we can put in whatever interests us now, it can ofcourse change later, the colleges know it. But if Physics is what interests you the most, put that, the colleges surely know that you are flexible and your likings are bound to change, even if a little.</p>
<p>Then again, I would not shove aside what Chedva said, because he is much more experienced than I am. But its what I think and surely what MIT thinks.</p>
<p>Well, I’m interested in either English or Computer Science, but i can’t seem to decide which one i want. so i decided to go undecided for the freshman year to try exploring and stuff. though i would like to put a specific major, i don’t want to make any hasty decisions…i think i will just follow chedva and follow through with undecided, but i will add my two potential majors as options 2 and 3. thank you adrivit and Chedva!</p>

Many schools are moving over to reading online. We’re paperless at UVa.</p>
<p>Adrivit, did you find out abt the fee waivers?</p>
<p>Nope! Nobody’s helping me on this, I mailed the colleges even, no reply!!</p>
<p>SO .. how do we send fee-waivers now that everything is online? Still mail? Or fax?</p>
<p>I skipped grade 8. Does this count as graduating early? Or does graduating early mean something else?</p>
<p>Graduating early means graduating from high school early, which means skipping grades 9,10,11, or 12, in the United States system at least.</p>
<p>Can I list photography as an EC? I’ve taken classes in school and dedicate a significant amount of time to it, but am not sure whether or not it counts…</p>
<p>I’m planning on sending a supplement with a rec from my photo teacher.</p>
<p>
Check each school’s website. At UVa, we want them faxed.</p>
<p>fhg: Yes! Wonderful EC!</p>
<p>DeanJ: Oh thanks! Most colleges want it mailed, which is sad because international mails are so costly!</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Can the art supplement be submitted online? I can’t seem to find it…</p>
<p>And where do we find out whether or not a school wants the supplement to be submitted before the main application?</p>
<p>Thanks, dchow08</p>
<p>I’m wondering what I am supposed to write in the “Please list the specific activity here, and provide details if needed” box… Should I describe each activity, or only those that are part of the “other” category?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Question about self-reporting test scores. If I plan on taking the SAT subject in November I just put that date and then send my score directly to the colleges, right? I don’t have to wait until November to submit my application?</p>
<p>Also, should I send my ACT score directly to my colleges even if I might retake it later on? Do colleges look at scores after the entire application is in or right away?</p>
<p>Does EC before high school count? I took piano lessons when I was in elementary school, but that was a long time ago. I did that for 5 years. And yes, I still play the piano, but not consistently.</p>
