Length of the Common Application Additional Information

<p>I have a research paper from one of my project. It has ... about 37 pages. I was wondering if I can attach and send to the admission officer.</p>

<p>Despite it has many photos and results I managed to compress the pdf to less than 500 kb. I want to underline the project it is really awesome. Should I attach to the additional information or should I send them via email or what is your suggestion?</p>

<p>By the way: It has many international awards including intel</p>

<p>Cheers;)</p>

<p>If this research paper won an Intel award, you can just say that. I doubt the admissions officers would actually want to read it - the award shows them that it’s impressive, and they may know nothing about the subject.</p>

<p>do NOT add that whole research paper to your additional info section. no adcom wants to read all that. like bruno said, if you won something or got published mentioning that is enough. </p>

<p>either way, even if the paper is amazing, the adcom will probably just be pretty annoyed.</p>

<p>I had a science research article (fourteen pages) I sent in last year too. I looked under each specific school’s policy and did not attach it to the Common App but rather sent it in separately. Most schools ask for an abstract. Some schools want the whole thing. It depends on their policy. Once the admissions officer gets it, he/she won’t read it but forward it onto a professor in that discipline to get some feedback. But that’s only if the school actually asks you to send the whole thing. Most get by with an abstract.</p>

<p>Send the abstract and what awards it received.</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback. For course I didn’t want to be read not even to be skimmed. I wanted only to be scrolled. To see my work, I had only calculus, devices, softwares, and this was my idea.</p>

<p>I made about 40 different projects for different sciences fairs. I have 6 of them which are the best projects, I won with all of these 6 about 13 international prizes. Should I send one by one to the admission office via email?</p>

<p>Any other ideas?</p>

<p>Cheers ;)</p>

<p>I want to inform I will attach also a resume with at least 6 pages.</p>
