Common Application - Additional Information?

<p>Where it says "additional information" did you guys copy paste your resume in there? Or did you leave it blank?</p>

<p>naw don't do that. just type in what they really wanna know.</p>

<p>for me, I told them my reasons for not having a job.</p>

<p>I detailed my ECs because there was not much room on the form.</p>

<p>Just me personally, I don’t see the point in elaborating on EC’s. It’s just fluff at that point. Should I just leave the section blank? What do people mean when they say their resume is put there?</p>

<p>Is the Additional Information section the appropriate place to enter extra Sat II scores and AP exams? Or would that information fit better on a resume?</p>

<p>I was wondering the same thing as dignified1.
Plus some of my EC stuff doesn’t fit otherwise, not enough space. Could I finish explaining on the resume/additional info then?</p>

<p>Should my Additional Information page upload be strictly one page? I’m not uploading a resume, it’s more of a list of just things that wouldn’t fit, with further descriptions.</p>

<p>Yes, it should be one page limit. It can be a resume or other list that adds to the information and is not just a repeat of the application.</p>

<p>But in order to add extra information, I have to give some kind of context. Repeating “Tennis” or another extracurricular listing surely wouldn’t be a sin would it?</p>
