Optional information for secondaries

Hi SDN,

I am ready to submit my next batch of secondaries. Before doing so, is it OK to include a few paragraphs of specific reasons I am applying to a certain school, if I still have space leftover after mentioning updated info? No, I'm not regurgitating their mission statements. I really made it clear that I've done my research on each program, and I've personally gained a lot stronger interests at many of these schools. I've had multiple peers read my essays which led to corrections, but I wanted some last minute advice before I go for it.

Thank you!

Shouldn't be a problem if you are concise. I got several interviews at schools where I did exactly that.

That sounds like a great idea as long as your text isn't trite and cliched.

Awesome, happy to hear. Thank you both very much!
