Optional essay?

<p>I've seen this all over the internet, and I can't find it! Is it on the common app? I didn't even know about it! I submitted my app already, but I think I'm borderline, so I want to know if I can resubmit my app with the essay. Thank you!</p>

<p>Bump please!</p>

<p>my son applied via the common app… there was no additional essay attached to it. Just the standard common app essay. If you want to be sure I would call admissions and see if there is anything else they need or if they need an additional essay. I’m sure they would appreciate hearing how much you want to be accepted. Being conscientious is always a quality admissions officers would like to see!</p>

<p>Thank you!! Anyone else?</p>
