<p>I got an email from an adcom asking me to send in a sample of my writing for my school newspaper. It's not something I especially stressed in my essays (though I did mention it), so I thought this was a little strange. I did talk about it a bit in my interivew, but again, I didn't stress it at all. </p>
<p>Has something like this happened to anyone else? Any guesses on what it means?</p>
<p>Other people on this site have had requests for further info regarding extracurriculars. So it's not unheard of. Send your best sample :)</p>
<p>yepp... same thing happened to me. I didn't really stress music in my app, but I got a mail saying that they would like to see some DVDs of my performances since they thought that it's a pretty big part of my life. I send them something pronto, so I guess just do the same and hope for the best, ^^</p>
<p>My admissions rep called me about one of my ECs--a unique initiative that I established. I won't go into too many details about the specifics because I like my anonymity on the internet, but the rep seemed really excited and wondered if I was going to continue it at Harvad. They asked me to send the link of my website front, and I wrote another essay depicting my work with the program.</p>
<p>I hope this is a good sign!</p>
<p>yea, sometimes they want to see how involved in your extracurricular since for activities like music, one can be very involved or not at all</p>
