<p>I'm submitting one of my supplemental essays by email rather than via the Common App because it's too long. In the word document, if I put first, middle and last name, along with phone # (not very comfortable putting SSN) at the top, is that enough to identify my essay?</p>
<p>I think you should include your full name, date of birth and high school. That should be enough to uniquely identify you. If you want to be extra-certain, put in your Common App ID #.</p>
<p>Make sure you put it on every page (you can add as a header or footer to a word doc & it will automatically do this on every page - maybe also insert page # of # - so the pages don’t get mixed up).</p>
