Sending in additional Essay?

<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<p>I was deferred from the SCEA pool and I was wondering if I should submit an additional essay because when I applied I didn't do the optional essay.</p>

<p>If so, how would I go about doing this? Do I have to email them? The applicant portal doesn't say anything about additional materials.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I’ve only heard of Penn accepting additional essays. Sending in another personal statement to H is a bad idea.</p>

<p>Thanks for the replies gibby and T26E4!</p>
