Follow-up to main essay as a supplement?

<p>I wrote my main essay for my EA application about something that was going on starting in October, so my essay kind of described the situation and why it was significant, but it didn’t have a conclusion because the issue wasn’t closed yet (and still isn’t as of now). If I send in a supplementary report (I was deferred), should I include updates on how the issue has been progressing? Can I expect that they already read the essay, because this would only make sense if they read the essay first.</p>

<p>Is there general rule of how long this should be limited to- like 200 words, or even 500 words? Do you see any issues with making a kind of list (like a few sentences on each topic) of my new activities since I applied?</p>

<p>no general rule, send whatever you want. But do include a cover letter.</p>
