<p>I've won a couple awards that I already listed on the common app...
Would it help me if I filled out Columbia's visual arts supplement? The thing is, I only have like 5 pieces that I feel are really good. Also, is the admissions officer going to look at it or will it be sent to the arts department? </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>PS if anyone wants to see my work PM me!</p>
<p>Yes, it would help. The arts department will critique it and tell the admissions officer what they think.</p>
<p>Okay. but does it matter if I only submit like 5? The norm is like 10…</p>
<p>Anything is better than nothing, and 5 excellent pieces are better than 10 bad pieces. If nothing else, they’ll probably be happy that you didn’t send in tons of stuff, cause that just means more work for them.</p>
