<p>Should I write somewhere in my application I had mono all of first semester?</p>
<p>Also completed my first semester of college and know many people who had mono, so it’s definately common but I’m not if you should write it in a transfer application unless it is true and it affected your academics in college.</p>
<p>Agree that it is not uncommon to have mono… some people still do fine academically. But of course it depends on the severity of the case. Really depends on the situation - could sound like whining, could come across as a legitimate explanation for problems.</p>
