<p>Dartmouth uses comm apps. I see three essays:</p>
<p>one short answer on activities, EC, or special interest
personal statement
one last one - Addiitonal explanantion ( if you want to say anything else)</p>
<p>where do you put " Why Dartmouth"</p>
<p>there is no specific "Why Dartmouth" essay</p>
<p>so its just the regular common app plus peer rec?? do we personally (meaning not our friends writing the peer rec) need to do anything additional to the common app</p>
<p>Just the common app and the peer rec (yes, you get one of your friends to write a recommendation for you) and that is it. There is no other supplemental info needed.</p>
<p>Just give your GC and the teacher their recommendation forms and the GC will send the midyear report and your transcripts </p>
<p>all the best.</p>
<p>great, thanks!</p>
