<p>This seems like a simple question, but I just want to double check. If I am applying online with the Common App, can I submit the supplement online and send my optional submission in the mail (I can't upload it because the file has pictures in it, so its too large). Would I just leave the optional submission section blank, or upload a blank document explaining that my optional submission was mailed? I know that lots of people mail things, but I want to make sure that those people didn't all mail in their supplements/applications as well. Thanks!</p>
<p>I think just say something like “To be sent in the mail” so they know that you didn’t just skip the “optional” part</p>
<p>You can submit your Common App and Supplement online together (in fact you cannot submit your Common App online without submitting your Supplement too). If you wish to mail your optional submission, that’s fine. Just note in the online area for the optional submission that you are sending it by mail and we will match what you mail with your other materials.</p>
<p>Thank You!</p>
