[quote=Anonymous]My child used it to explain an Honors Independent Study Project that appears on their transcript with an H as the grade. It was a very involved project that pertained to their major, and they wrote about 500 words to BRIEFLY describe the project and IN DETAIL describe what they learned from the experience. (Had there been another place on the application to explain it, they have left this section blank.) Having said this, they did get rejected at their ED1 school (Villanova), but were accepted at all their EA schools and their ED2. Also, Sara Harberson is very emphatic that this section should be left blank. We disregarded that advice (obviously) because the school counselor told us we should use the space in this way. I don't know that omitting it would have changed Villanova's decision; probably not.[/quote]
