Indicating Additional Information on the SAO

Hello!

For some context, I’m applying to some boarding schools as a new sophomore. Though I wouldn’t be opposed to repeating, I’ve been advised against it because of my age–I turn 18 the August before senior year and if I repeated, I would be turning 19. So, though it’s unlikely, I would still like to indicate that I am still willing to repeat a year just in case there isn’t space for new sophomores, I would fit in better with freshmen, etc. I’ve noticed that on the Gateway applications, there is space to do this whether it’s the Candidate Profile or individual applications.

However, I haven’t been able to find a way to mention this in my SAO application. Does anyone have advice for how I might be able to do this?

Thanks!
