<p>My daughter was unexpectedly made captain of one of her sports after her EA application went in…should she provide this information to SB now or wait till if she’s deferred or is it just not something that makes a difference? She has a good activity resume but not a lot of “I’m a leader!” kind of evidence.</p>
<p>One piece like that isn’t going to make the difference. At no point in my four years here at Stony Brook have I ever said “Well, if only she was captain of the basketball team…”</p>
<p>That said… best wishes to your daughter, and congratulations to her as well! Is she hoping to continue to play? What sport?</p>

<p>Thanks, you answered my question exactly! It’s really pathetic when the kid comes home and says she’s been elected captain and all you can say is, “Oh No!! You sent in your application already!”</p>
