<p>Hey guys!</p>
<p>Just started working on common app (for Stanford SCEA...so excited!!!!) and I have a few questions. Firstly, when it asked to name awards, i was only able to list 8 state level awards before it told me I had the max number listed....what should I do cuz I have alot more to go? Additionally, should I attach an extra page to my app explaining my ECs in more detail bc they give you no space to do it on common app? ANY advice is appreciated!</p>
<p>Thanks,
Robbie</p>
<p>I would just attach a resume that contains the rest of the awards you’ve won and your extracurriculars in detail (if you feel you must explain them in detail; otherwise, you don’t have to do this). The resume is not necessary but clearly the Common App is insufficient in your case, so a resume would be great to showcase your accomplishments.</p>
<p>Yes, definitely attach a resume.</p>
<p>I’ve read NOT to attach a resume rather just a “continuation” of what you are doing activity, volunteering, and working wise. You are not applying for a job; you are trying to get into college. </p>
<p>A resume would just seem a bit too pompous in the admission process … that’s my opinion but defintely put things in the additional information if it does not fit onto the application.</p>
<p>im thinking about attaching a chart or something that has my activites repated but with more decription, but im not sure if that would be “to pompous”!</p>
