<p>Thanks. I was looking at the college (preview) app for the 2010-2011 year and I have few questions/comments:

  1. Colleges and Universities:
    This place is meant for summer schools, additional courses taken at nearby colleges.
    If one runs out of space can you attach a separate sheet?</p>

<ol>
<li><p>The SAT, AP, IB Best scores either should have been just three ( to satifsy the demanding college requirements) or should allow to lisy all the laundry list of AP/IB courses taken. It is somewhat in between. So just list with in the space and not attach a seapare sheet of these courses will be covered in the transcript?</p></li>
<li><p>Same for honors and academic awards … space seem limited … may be use an additional sheet using the catch all “Additional information” section?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>So my quetion is this. for item 1 & 3 the only recourse is the “Additional Information” section ?</p>

<p>I have seen some colleges want you elaborate in their supplement these summer activities etc. This is very cofusing when you try to get these information in a common application.</p>

<p>??</p>

<p>Students can use the Additional Information section as they choose. Your examples would certainly be valid uses.</p>
