<p>People say to not put too much information about yourself on the application, even though colleges say they won’t use it to evaluate you. </p>
<p>These things are like: income, siblings *twins, etc etc… you guys know</p>
<p>So, what are you guys doing? Anyone can speak through experience?</p>
<p>good luck to all</p>
<p>really? no one? and 317 views?</p>
<p>Its kind of a broad question. I don’t believe there is a direct question about income, just about whether you are going to ask for financial aid. I can’t imagine how it would be bad to mention you have siblings or a twin so not sure what made you think that.</p>
<p>I think the important thing is to appear interested, rounded, energetic and focused in your EC list, your short paragraph and essay. </p>
<p>Give enough info but don’t use the additional info section unless you really have something to add. Do not restate your EC list with a resume saying the same things.</p>
<p>Just fill out the application per the instructions? It’s not that big of a deal. Adding a five page resume detailing every little things about you would be “putting too much info”</p>
<p>Here I am referring to things that colleges may use against* you @dract, not the resume stuff.
These are things that you may not want colleges to use against you if possible; as stated, income, siblings, etc…</p>
<p>Also, I have heard that colleges like twins. It’s a weird factor that influences admissions @Lakemom. </p>
<p>As far as extra sheet, I may just expand more on my EC’s. (since you guys all talked about that)</p>
