I was wondering if anyone uploads an activities list in the other section because of the limited activities list they do have on their application? Would this be detrimental when trying to become accepted into their BA/MD program?

send an activities list or resume, cut and paste into an email to the Pitt admissions office. Don't send an attachment bec they don't open it. Pitt reviews this as supplemental information. My daughter's college counselor advised that she should also send an essay or personal statement, though it is not required.

Essays are required for scholarship consideration at Pitt. Absolutely write an essay.

Yes, he did the essay as well. The more information they have on you the better.
