<p>Yale’s response: “Thank you for your interest in Yale. The admissions office receives many thousands of applications each year, and it is important to put serious thought into your submissions. We ask that you use your best judgment to determine if extra material will truly enhance your application in a way that will set you apart from the many other talented applicants, or if it will only serve to detract from the other key elements of the application.”</p>
<p>MIT’s response: “Thank you for your interest in MIT. You can send in your Western-style cartoons as an art supplement.”</p>
<p>So plan of action, I guess - not sending any art except to Olin and MIT, and I’ll have an art teacher review my work first.</p>
<p>Thanks again to everyone who posted!</p>
