<p>So I have an extra essay about my childhood, and it's really more of a reflection of my morals than extenuating circumstances. I really do like it, so would I be able to use it in my additional info section? No harm done...right? Oh, and it's around 650 words -_-</p>
<p>No, no, no. Do not put an extra essay in the additional info section. If they wanted more essays to read, they would ask for them. That section is for things like additional info on activities you could not fit in the normal app section, listing online courses that don’t fit in any other category, info on situations like health problems that affected grades for a period of time (summary only), etc. Admissions counselors have thousands of apps to read, they do not welcome extra essays.</p>
