<p>Hey guys, I didn't want to hijack the EA'ers thread, so I made this one for those of us who will be applying for regular decision. Feel free to ask questions here, voice your concerns, offer some advice, or what have you!</p>
<p>Hi everyone! How’s everyone doing with their apps? It’d be crazy cool if some of us actually ended up going to the same schools… and hopefully that’d be Stanford ;)</p>
<p>Hey guys I’m apply regular too. I hope we all get in next year! Are any of you writing up the additional resume for the common application? I’m not sure if schools like Stanford, Cornell, etc… Like that better</p>
<p>I’m not exactly doing a resume, per se-- I’m basically uploading a more descriptive activities and awards list, a long with a description of summer activities.</p>
<p>I thought Stanford didn’t want resumes.</p>
<p>^Really? I’ve heard of people who attached one but still got in…Maybe it just annoys them a little?</p>
<p>“I thought Stanford didn’t want resumes.”</p>
<p>@Rush10
really??I’ve never heard them say that</p>
<p>I have heard that they don’t want resumes. In fact, I believe they say so on their admissions website.</p>
<p>Hey guys! I’m not attaching any resumes. Is Stanford your first choice even though you are applying regular? It is for me. i didn’t apply early because of standardized testing stuff.</p>
<p>Neuroscience yes Stanford is my first choice also! And same thing as you- I had to take two subject tests so I couldn’t apply early 
oh well, hopefully it will all work out</p>
<p>Stanford’s one of my top schools, but I have to visit (and get in!) before I decide to go or not.</p>
<p>Does anyone know if Stanford cares about when your SSR/transcript get sent in? My school makes it so that we basically have to order/mail them before we apply, and I don’t want Stanford to throw out/lose my stuff…will they just create a file for me like most other colleges do?</p>
<p>^i think they have a file, so it shouldn’t be a problem. use the mailing labels!</p>
<p>I submitted my app yesterday!! so excited and relieved its done. stanford is my first choice, even though I didn’t apply REA.</p>
<p>DO NOT send a resume; do not upload it under “Additional Information.” Stanford hates, hates, hates resumes. They say so directly on their admissions website.</p>
<p>Stanford doesn’t abjectly hate resumes, and if you’ve already uploaded it to the Common Application, they won’t incite a pogrom against you and your family. They simply don’t consider it in their decision. Now, if you mail them a resume along with an additional essay and a family portrait and a detailed record of the migration patterns of the barn swallow, then they might get a bit annoyed.</p>
<p>Hey guys!</p>
<p>Yeah i’ve been following the EA thread lol. I’m a RD applicant with arts supplement, so I submitted my app yesterday! =D</p>
<p>Hi, folks. I’ll probably be lurking most of the time; that is, until late March arrives. ;P</p>
<p>Oh, and I didn’t notice the Common App’s “additional information” section at all. lol</p>
<p>I have not even begun my supplement.</p>
<p>Is it true about the additional information? How would one indicate test scores if they have more than 8 AP tests + subject tests combined? (I’m sure a lot of applicants to Stanford do).</p>
<p>For additional information, I did NOT attach a resume, but instead listed my additional ap and sat scores, plus the information on courses I took at an enrichment summer program and a description of one of my awards (not well known or obvious from title). I have no idea if that’s right, but I just made sure not to repeat any information they could have found elsewhere in the application.</p>
<p>Hi everyone! I’m (likely) applying to Stanford RD. I applied to Columbia ED and UChicago EA, but if ED doesn’t pan out (and with Columbia being such a crapshoot…) Stanford’s definitely on my list. :’)</p>
