<p>To Dean J- I wasn't able to figure out a way to send you a Private Message. I have a quick question about applications. </p>
<p>I applied to schools yesterday but forgot to mention two things about myself. Firstly, I skipped the 8th grade and went straight into high school. Secondly, I transferred to a private high school in 10th grade. My new high school limited the number of AP/ Honors classes students could take to 3 a year. They refused to allow me to take any advanced courses till the 11th because I was a transfer. However, to make up, in the 11th and 12th they allowed me to take 4 AP/Honors classes, th most of any student in the grade. </p>
<p>Is this information important, and is there anyway I can get it to colleges now that I have submitted the common app?</p>
<p>Thanks for your response. Very true, I should probably have confirmed with him before he submitted his rec. I’ll speak with him tomorrow when school opens. </p>
<p>And if he didn’t mention them, what should be my course of action?</p>
<p>You can email the admissions office with this info. I would first talk to your GC and see if he/she mentioned any of this, and if not, send a note. UVa probably knows of the AP limits for your school from the school profile your GC is supposed to send, but not of the skipping 8th grade</p>
<p>Also, I suggest emailing rather than snail mail; if you read Dean J’s blog, they’ve attempted to go all-paperless. Also, you can attach a read receipt request to guarantee it makes it there okay</p>
Just email your update. It’ll get filed with your application.</p>
