<p>I’m sending a vocal jazz supplement before the SCEA deadline. I am self-taught in jazz and have had no formal training, but I’ve been told by school/regional music faculty that my recordings are worthy of national recognition. I have no jazz extracurriculars, because it’s pretty much just a hobby of mine.
The admissions website says only some supplements will be reviewed at all - does that mean my lack of jazz ECs will discourage them from allowing it to be forwarded to the music department?
(as background, I believe I’m at least qualified for serious review in terms of grades, scores, and other application materials)</p>
<p>If Admissions is interested in you because of your academic strength and “character,” my guess is that they will listen to your jazz supplement, even though you lack jazz EC’s.</p>
