Oberlin's supplement. Help!

I just realized Oberlin has a seperate supplemental form for international students which can't be submited anywhere online. Can i just ignore it and instead submit the common app supplement form through common app online?

no...Cornell also has that. and it is required to be mailed to the Office of Admissions

yeah...the common app supplement is also needed! be sure to send the Common app and College supplement and other supplement materials!

Check it out again. I dont think Oberlin requires the common app supplement for internationals. They do however require the supplement for International Student.

that's what i think... I've compared those two forms and found that it's pretty much the same, the only difference is the essay question, the question for intels ask why you want to study outside your country and why oberlin... so i'm wondering if i can fill out the common app supplement but in the essay section answer the question for intels...
