Hi @Melissa96 , thanks so much for the reply. That’s kind of the problem, there isn’t really anything like that to explain.

He wrote two short paragraphs about why he only played in the band one year (ninth grade), which is because he had to choose between a varsity sport and band, due to time commitments, and he chose the sport. His school counselor didn’t like it very much and said he should write something like a “why UF” response.

So now he has a 250-word, essay-type response, but I’m worried that it isn’t what admissions wants.

Is it better to leave this blank or say “Nothing further to submit”?
