As I was working on my RD applications today I realized more than half of what I put in the Additional Info section got cut off. Is it okay if the resubmit it by emailing admissions or something?

I know it was really stupid of me not to check it before submitting but I figured since I was within the character limit, I was okay >.<

thanks! and by regional counselor do you mean my high school counselor (she's already told me journalism is considered an academic subject at my school) or a uchicago regional counselor?

I'd double-check with your UChicago regional counselor for your area, just to make sure.

supplement

There's no link on the Common App website for U chicago supplement. Is it only the essay questions on the main U of Chicago website?

Hi,

I was wondering if language recommendations were allowed? There is nothing about it on your website, but there appears to be buzz on this forum that they aren't. Also, I am an IB Diploma Candidate and was wondering if I would be allowed to use my Theory of Knowledge teacher as one of my teacher recommendations? Also, at my school we have our own 'house' system where our homeroom is comprised of people in our house from different grades. My homeroom teacher taught me English in grade 10 (when I came to this particular school). Since then I have worked really closely with her on extra curricular such as the student magazine and starting a student book club. Would a recommendation from her be appropriate? What if my second recommendation was from a different English teacher?

You should email your regional counselor and have him/her help you decide.

Hi Ms. Pearson,

I was wondering if the optional essay could count against an applicant. I took time on the other essays, but the optional is so so. Would it have been better that I didn't write it at all?
