<p>school report supplement?</p>
<p>i just found out that harvard has a school report supplement for common application... and i've already sent my common app school report WITHOUT the supplement ><</p>
<p>bump...
and i hope im not screwed for harvard</p>
<p>Oh my God, I think I may have missed that. I'll check.</p>
<p>OK, it does.</p>
<p>What we missed was that when you download the pdf off of Harvard's website, instead of a common-app school report and theirs, it is in a 4 page document with the commonapp on top. I must have seen it and not looked at the bottom.</p>
<p>However,</p>
<p>It is short. Basically they ask for your transcript (already sent), if you were ever in trouble, a few more boxing in of good, excellent, top 5%, etc., and a few extra questions for internationals.</p>
<p>It should be Ok to submit it on Monday.</p>
<p>If anyone else knows of unique forms (Yale has one), please tell us......</p>
<p>it has a special one for students studying outside the U.S</p>
<p>could you please give me a link? I searched everywhere on princeton.edu and couldn't find it.
and what the hells the point of having a COMMON APPLICATION when they have supplements for SCHOOL REPORTS!!! i mean does it really matter?</p>
<p>y17k - call Princeton's Admission office and ask. The Princeton Supplement to the Common Application is only 9 pages, and I don't think the school report is included in their supplement, so I assume it's only for those who choose to submit the Princeton Application proper. Harvard's supplement is important though. I think they defer applicants who don't send the supplement - they claim the application is incomplete without it.</p>
<p>ok i've emailed them :D</p>
<p>thanks all</p>
<p>Keep us posted.</p>
<p>wow. this is why its so much easier to just use the paper application.</p>
<p>we ARE talking about the paper application!? 'this is the problem with supplements' you mean ;)</p>
<p>If it's missing, wouldn't Harvard just contact you or your school and ask for you to get it filled in? I don't see how it would be a really big deal...</p>
<p>it could be a big deal if they read your application in the final decision week and then realize it's missing, and it could be a big deal if you receive notification when it's too late to send it. if you are deferred, it could also be a big deal.</p>
<p>on a side note, why do they require the applications THREE MONTHS before the decision is made?
seems kinda too early for me</p>
<p>well, when you have 13,000 students apply, each with a 12 page application and 20 minutes to read each application ... that's a lot of paper, hundreds of hours and a lot of decision making. 3 months is relatively reasonable.</p>
<p>agree. you'd better keep the deadline, esp when you're living abroad.</p>
