<p>Hi guys! So I'm applying to Rice and I had a few questions about the supplement questions! For the first one they ask to describe an extracurricular briefly, and I'm having some doubts about what I should put down. For my common app essay, I wrote about a summer science program in Germany and the research I did at the German National Cancer Center (not super sciencey, more about the international aspect, and how I enjoyed learning with people from different nationalities) and for the Why Rice? question I wrote about how I really liked their BioE program, etc. I was thinking that since I really want to emphasize my research, I should write about the research I did at the Cleveland Clinic for the past two years for the extracurricular question. However, the head of the lab wrote me a recommendation letter already. So, in short, I was wondering if that would be too much science and if I should stick with a description of my time on the XC team or something like MUN?
Also, does anyone know if you can send additional info to the admissions office?
Thanks!!!</p>
<p>For the question regarding sending additional info, the representative that spoke to my high school said that you should be able to email your school’s representative or the admissions office with any documents/pictures/resumes that you would like added to your file.</p>
