[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grinnell asked my kid to submit an optional why us supplemental essay a few weeks after submitting his application. Grinnell was also the only school he applied to that made him submit official test scores. Every other school allowed self report of scores.[/quote] Was that this year? How long was this optional supplement?[/quote] He graduated high school in 23. He applied regular decision. Off the top of my head, the supplement request arrived in February and he had a few weeks to complete it. [/quote] 100 words? Interesting they do it that way rather than ask upfront. Are they worried they would get fewer applications if it's known from the start? Maybe it's truly optional, maybe it's a yield protection thing to see who replies. My understanding is that sometime in Feb most schools have read applications and start on final class "shaping."[/quote]
