First App Submitted!

[absy]

Yeah, I know I'm behind a bunch of you, but I'm still excited.  I just submitted my app to NYU!  Before long I will have everything else except for Yale and Stanford!  Hooray!

[AaronJ]

You are way ahead of me. 

Good luck.

Michigan and Columbia sent!

Hey totalbs247:

Can you run me through the process of what you did to apply to NYU starting from pressing transmit etc.? What did you send (resume, PS, etc.)? How did u send money and certification etc... THanks.
I plan on sending out my apps soon too.
THanx

I uploaded my PS and resume before transmitting, and I had a fee waiver so the fee was automatically taken care of.  NYU doesn't have a certification, does it?

[amelus]

no it does not

[absy]

And Harvard!

I'm spent.  I'm going to wait and have my PS checked again before I send to Stanford.  And now it's time to start on that damn 250w essay...

[Barry]

thank you! Did you send an addendum?
How did you separate extra currics or honors from eachother on applications? Did you put a comma or semicolon between them. Also did you put ure position in parenthessis or after a colon, etc. thanx!

I think you're worrying a little too much about format.  Just use something that looks good and don't worry about it.  If you are rejected for your formatting, then there's something glaringly wrong.

[amelus]

agreed.  when unsure of s/t--the best answer is to imagine your an admissions officer.  if you have to read 1000's of resumes and applications, i assure you that there is no way you're checking them all for accuracy in semicolons and commas etc (obviously this is different for the PS).
