<p>I am applying RD, and I am confused about the CommonApp. It does not show that D has an application essay. I thought there was one. Thoughts?</p>
<p>The supplement doesn't have an essay. There's a peer evaluation though.</p>
<p>I think kids are more confused than relieved that Dartmouth does not have a supplementary essay.</p>
<p>Does the lack of a supplemental essay aid in the view of Dartmouth admissions as being more numbers then anything else?</p>

<p>Or it means that the extra time and effort you put into your common app essay will be rewarded in kind. Without extra supplemental essays to wade through, Dartmouth can give your common app essay and peer evaluation more consideration.</p>
