<p>I am a hopeful transfer and had a few questions about the application. If you wouldn't mind answering it would be a great help?</p>
<p>a. In the common app, how specific/long should I make the essay asking "why Transfer" because in the supplement it asks specifically "why xxx"</p>
<p>b. In the course selection section, what if my current courses don't fit under the specific courses? Or I have more in one section than another? Should I just fill my other classes in unrelated sections?
(By sections I mean it is split into Math, English, Social Science, etc.)</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>a. With the CA, you can customize your essays for each school, so make the Why Transfer one more general and the supplemental essay specific about the attributes of the school you’re applying to. If you have a school that doesn’t have a Why X supplement, modify your Why Transfer to include some points specific to that school.</p>
<p>b. You can put such information under the “Additional Information” section. Lots of student seem to run into this problem, I don’t know why they don’t change the format to include room for more classes.</p>
<p>There is an additional information section? Oh wow, thanks.</p>
