Sending Additional Information

Colleges and Universities A-Z Dartmouth College

<p>I'm planning on sending a letter to update Dartmouth on some of my ECs, and I was wondering if I could include other stuff I want them to know. (The kind of stuff that I might've put under "additional information" originally, but didn't because I planned on sharing it with my interviewer. Unfortunately, it looks like I didn't get an interview, and now I'm worried because it feels like my app is incomplete...)</p>

<p>I realize it's kinda late in the admissions process--would they still be willing to read this kind of letter?</p>

<p>It can’t hurt so you might as well send it…</p>

<p>On the Dartmouth website it says this…</p>

<p>“We discourage applicants from submitting large amounts of additional material and we will not process copies of awards or certificates, newsletters, or minor extracurricular updates.”</p>

<p>How do we know what qualifies as a minor extracurricular update (as opposed to a significant one)?</p>

<p>Doesn’t matter. Just send it. Worst case scenario would be some kid who works in the admissions office reads the email and deletes it.</p>

<p>Are you planning on sending a physical letter or an email?</p>

<p>I feel like it’s too late at this point for it to be considered…</p>
