<p>I tried to reply to your private message, but received the following statement from CC: </p>
<p>“The following errors occurred with your submission:
HouseGeneral has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her.”</p>
<p>So, in answer to your question:</p>
<p>It’s difficult to say without knowing what else you might write about. You want an Admissions Committee to go “WOW!” Will they do that after reading your Common App personal statement? If so, then adding another layer, another interest that says “WOW” cannot hurt you. Good luck!</p>
<p>All best,</p>
