<p>How big of a role do supplements play in your acceptance? </p>
<p>I feel like if you really show your (fun or interesting) self, admission officers will get to know your real character- one that they might even consider while admitting you. </p>
<p>Anyways, please comment. Thank you</p>
<p>Very few colleges evaluate supplements. What sorts of schools are you targeting? Just because it’s an option on the Common App, doesn’t mean the college wants them. The CA is a comprehensive template and not every section is meant to be sent to every college.</p>
<p>For those that do accept the, the conventional wisdom is that if you can submit something that is superior, do so. If it’s just a side item or interesting thing – I’ve heard both sides of the argument, depending on the college.</p>
