<p>Is anyone submitting a photo? Just curious.</p>
<p>And does anyone know if the site will be back by tomorrow?
"Due to a system upgrade, the 2008-2009 online Application for First-Year Admission is currently unavailable. Please check back later to access our application. PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO SUBMIT YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION AT THIS TIME."</p>
<p>^Fantastic.</p>
<p>haha to the photo thing. I saw that, but I thought it would be kinda awkward to just put a picture.. like do you put your senior picture? some random photo? I'm sure they don't want like a facebook/myspace photo.. idk, but I'm not putting one.</p>
<p>& I saw the site thing too.. it made me nervous. I hope it's fixed within the next few days! I still have to fix parts of my application</p>
<p>Yeah...its absurd that the site is down now.</p>
<p>you should include a picture...puts a face to your application and makes you more memorable to the committee</p>
<p>Yeah. I just feel weird...
What if someone is deemed ugly by the committee?</p>
<p>"DENY!" jk.</p>
<p>Jmeelynn: Makes me really nervous too, but eh...hope for the best</p>
<p>i put a picture...
and i think the site is up by now</p>
<p>y send a pic. what if your fat and ugly?
lol send a pic of you beside supermodels
or a pic of you getting high or drunk.
i mean they want different people so be different</p>
<p>I just send a picture of me looking normal. I believe it was just from some random dinner...</p>
<p>its fixed now! =) such a relief. haha</p>
<p>& peterp- so are you going to actually put a photo?
i wasn't planning on it, but after everyone said you should so they see your face & remember you, now i'm debating whether or not i should</p>
<p>I'm debating between a school picture where I look like I'm made out of a more artificial version of plastic or a crappy quality one where I at least look like a living organism.</p>
<p>Best excuse to stall sending it in ever!</p>
<p>haha same vanillachocolate.. I was def gunna send mine in as soon as I saw the site was fixed but now I'm debating about the picture thing.. ughhhh</p>
<p>haha. and now we're using this thread as a way to stall choosing a picture to stall submitting the app. yay indecisiveness!</p>
<p>I didn't submit one.. is it really that important? Now I'm starting to wish I attached something. No use crying over spilled milk, I guess.</p>
<p>jmeelynn: I think I might, but still unsure. Need to find a good picture!
perio: don't worry about it, I've talked to current students who disregarded it</p>
<p>i just submitted my application! I decided to include my senior photo b/c it was a decent photograph... idk if it will hurt my chances or like ruin my application haha, but at least it's done.</p>
<p>they're not going to judge you based on your picture..
I asked an admissions officer and she told me that it helped them put a face to the application, and also if they have already met you they can know it's you.</p>
<p>Noooo
Now I feel like I'm the only one who hasn't submitted the application :-p
Gotta fix my essay</p>
<p>Peter, you're not the only one. i'm not submitting mine until monday/tuesday. Have to keep on tweaking my essay/ perfect the why engineering/ abstract :(</p>
<p>Thank you! :)
I'm gonna submit it on either Thurs or Fri (thank God no school). I'm starting to really hate my essay...</p>
<p>ummm...i just submitted my headshot for acting....i figured they just wanted to see the face...i think anything normal looking is fine</p>
