<p>So, for Upenn, are any of you planning to send an optional photo? If so, do you have to be dressed professionally in the picture or can it be more casual? My mum insists that I include my yearbook picture, which I think is ridiculous. Also, do we send the picture by including it in a word document?</p>
<p>Same question! I've got to do it for the Columbia application, and my mom's bent on using the yearbook picture..</p>
<p>But yep, word document!</p>
<p>I pasted it onto a word document. But the picture is just so they can put a face with the application. It doesn't have to be anything special. It's just a picture. As long as you're not breaking the law or dressed in a bikini, then it really doesn't matter.</p>
<p>what if you look really good in a bikini?</p>
<p>heh, just joking. kind of.</p>
<p>The only reason why I haven't submitted my Columbia app is 'cause I'm still debating whether or not to include a picture... I think I will.</p>
