Sending in updated material

<p>I submitted Harvard and Princeton about a month ago, and since then while doing other colleges, I've made a handful of changes in my additional information section (essentially a brief resume/list of awards, clubs, etc. and then a chart expanding on my five main activities) - but mostly in formatting and writing, no changes in actual awards or positions.</p>

<p>I know it's okay to send updates with new information, but in my case it's not exactly new, just done in a better way. So is it acceptable to send them a new version? Just of the additional information (resume + chart)?</p>

<p>For Yale it's even worse, I did SCEA and I didn't even think of doing the activity chart yet, which I think in my case was definitely a good addition. My main essay is also weaker, I don't suppose I can send in a new version of that too?</p>

<p>Thanks!!
I'm kind of smacking myself right now for doing my most important ones so early</p>

<p>The purpose of updates are for adding awards, making corrections, etc., they are not to edit your already submitted application, sorry.</p>

<p>When I called Harvard a few weeks ago, they stressed to send an update only if something new actually needed to be change (i.e. new award received, etc). I'm sure you will be fine.</p>

<p>EDIT: Not sure about the Yale essay though</p>

<p>ok thank you, I was just wondering if perhaps there was a difference if I submitted before the official 1/1 deadline (or is it 1/2? idk). does that make sense? :P</p>

<p>It won't really change anything, probably just annoy them.</p>

<p>Thanks, I figured</p>

<p>How about if I have a new award, can I send in the whole updated resume/chart? :P</p>

<p>My major issue is that my common app 'short answer' was written terribly but I could make up for that with te activity chart</p>
