<p>This is probably the wrong section, but I was wondering how I should construct my resume/profile. I have many different activities, and I’m not 100% sure how to condense all of them into the profile. If somebody could show me a sample as to how to construct it, that would be perfect. I have the general idea, but I’m just interested in seeing how others constructed their resumes/profiles. Thanks so much.</p>
<p>Also, I heard it should only be one page long. Is this true?</p>
<p>Unlike other top schools, Stanford does not allow RESUMES according to their OFFICIAL policy so it is very important to utilize their Common App and Supplementary App to include everything that is important to YOU. YOU will have to be creative…</p>

<p>look under CHECKLIST:
“DO NOT send additional materials such as resumes, research papers, newspaper articles and writing samples. They will not be considered.”</p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p>
<p>You should (if possible) refrain from attaching a resume to the Common Application, especially considering how much reading admission officers have to do. You wouldn’t want to annoy them. Definitely don’t attach anything that rehashes what you’ve already said. If you’re using the “Activities” page of the Common App, simply list the activities that are most important to you first. This is a good rule of thumb: whenever you have a space constraint (i.e., one page) you should always make it a point to list whatever is most important to you. Also, it would be good to show some area of focus/concentration when crafting your activities section/resume. More so now that ever before, highly selective colleges seem to like people who are specialized/highly passionate about one or two things. So you may want to leave some of your activities out.</p>
<p>I know this is extremely late, but thanks a lot for the responses! I really appreciate it.</p>
