<p>Hi everyone, hope your college applications are going well. I'm nearly done with my RD Columbia application, and I'm trying to decide which optional photo to use. I know some people suggest using a photo that shows you doing an activity, but I am just going to use a straight headshot photo. </p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>Photo</a> #1
Photo</a> #2
Photo</a> #3</p>
<p>I like all of them! You are very pretty. 
As for which picture to use, I’d say #2 or #3 because (for me) #1 is too “pose-y.” I like #2 because the skirt is adorable and the distance is nice, and #3 is a great head shot. If I were you with those photos though, I’d go with #2.</p>
<p>Prolly the third.</p>
<p>The third.</p>
<p>Close up is probably a good idea. If you like the 3rd as your close up, go for it.</p>
<p>use either the first or third! the second one seems a bit false for me :)</p>
<p>oh and you are pretty!</p>
<p>the first.</p>
<h1>1 is my favorite, but if you can’t blow it up a bit then I would go with #3</h1>
<p>Unfortunately I can’t get #1 or #2 any bigger than they currently are. I think I’ll go with #3 - thank you all so much for your input!</p>
<p>Good choice. I just realized that after all this time on CC, your picture is the first one I’ve seen!</p>
<p>did you visit columbia? or take a tour?</p>
