so my commonapp essay exceeds the little preview box...

yeah, lol. I did the "Print Preview" option on the commonapp.ORG website before submitting, and I found that my whole essay didn't even fit on the personal statement page. O_o Do I cut the rest of it and add it to "Additional Info" or what? I REALLY don't want to cut my essay anymore... it's suffered enough pain =(

I had the same problem.One para didn't fit in the preview box. And I didn't want to cut off my essay as well. So, I pasted the last para in the additional information section. I don't know whether that will do any good .But I had no choice!
