Hi I have two questions about the LOCI.
- When should the letter be sent by? ASAP or around February?
- Ik a LOCI should update Brown on recent achievements, but I really have none (I’m still in all the ECs I listed in the common app and nothing much has changed.) Would it be bad if I just poured my heart into the letter saying why Brown is my dream school? Or would that not add anything to my application?
Thanks in advance.
Your emphasis right now should be on applying to other schools. So don’t worry now about the letter (and please please tell me you are the only person to use that abbreviation, because most people would have no idea what LOCI is other than misspelling the Norse god’s name).
Send the letter whenever you want – there’s nothing strategic about it. And yes, it’s OK to pour your heart into it and it’s OK if you have no recent achievements – although that may be one good reason to postpone writing it.
sorry for digging this up late but should I send in the letter via mail or just email it?
