<p>Hello! First time post in this MIT board!</p>
<p>I'm applying online, and I'm looking all over for some kind of cover sheet or something for a supplemental rec. What should I do?</p>
<p>Much love!</p>
<p>I just gave my mentor a cover sheet which had my full name, date of birth, and high school name on it with SUPPLEMENTAL RECOMMENDATION in all caps at the top.</p>
<p>Worked for me.</p>
<p>Ok, thank you! I was afraid there was an "Official Form" that I just was not seeing.</p>
<p>Congrats ducktape! It seems like you and I were in the same boat- UChicago and MIT as top choices! I only applied EA to Chicago though (Accepted wooo!), and am (obviously) doing RD for MIT.</p>
<p>haha, Thanks. I thought you were hard core UChicago, though. Are you still applying to MIT just to compare aid, then?</p>
<p>Well, I'm pretty obsessed with Chicago, but I didn't want to "openly" obsess about MIT since it is much reachier than Chicago. But since I am in at Chicago, who knows? :) The possibilities seem a little more. . . possible.</p>
<p>I really liked it when I visited (the "quirkiness" factor seems on par with Chicago) so if I get in, I'll probably have to visit both again and stay over and visit classes to see, since I visited both during the summer when "real" student life wasn't going on. </p>
<p>As for aid, I'm not really thinking about that now (except filling out forms of course). If it costs more to go to where I want to go, I'll probably go there anyway (not that I'm fabulously wealthy or anything). </p>
<p>LOL hard CORE UChicago. I couldn't help but notice.</p>
<p>Haha, I didn't even catch that myself.</p>
<p>All right, makes sense.</p>
<p>the quirkiness at MIT utterly pwns that at UChicago! :P</p>
<p>BTW. . . can I do the same thing for CommonApp things? I can't see a specific form there either. . . .</p>
<p>Yeah, that's what I did.</p>
