How do I add something to my application?

[spontaneousx]

<p>I dropped a class this year to focus on my independent study project...so on my transcript it says "Independent Study." However, I didn't specify what exactly I am doing/researching right now FOR my independent study. How do I let JHU know?</p>

<p>It’s easy…a couple of options…1) go to JHU website, identify who the adcom member is for your area and you will see their email address…just email him/her and they can add the email to your file…2) Send something in writing and mail it to
Office of Undergraduate Admissions
Johns Hopkins University
Mason Hall / 3400 N. Charles Street
Baltimore, MD 21218</p>

<p>Actually, email is not recommended. From AdmissionsDaniel’s [most</a> recent blog post](<a href=“Taiga”>Taiga):

Can I add items to my application even though the deadline has passed? Uh oh, I made a mistake in my application, how can I correct it?
Yes, we will still accept application updates and we do have a process for error corrections. It is simple. To provide an update or error correction, you must compose a cover letter and submit these materials by fax (410-516-6025) or mail to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. In the cover letter, you should include your full name, birth date, and school name (SS# is optional but can help), so that we can merge this new information with your application folder. Also, all updates should be sent in by February 1. Finally, DO NOT SEND UPDATES VIA E-MAIL, as we do not process application materials received through e-mail.

<p>what kinds of things are appropriate to send in? Could I update my supplement essays? just clarify a little… or is that overdoing it?
How about a little note to explain my horrible performance in a class this semester?..haha</p>
