Shane41 said:Do all schools ask you for a supp application?
Some schools just ask for photos and a check. Other schools will go further and have a paper application for you to fill out as well. It just depends on the school.
All schools have a supplemental something... not necessarily an application. Boston University for example, has NO supplemental application... but they need to you to send them money before they will consider your application. Other schools (most of them) have everyone fill out a supp. app. w/ money. And a few other schools only give out supp. apps. if you meet their initial criteria.
It was on a thread last week that Marquette's "supplemental" is actually a scholarship application and not necessarily for admissions consideration.

so some of the schools allow you to fill it out and send it in without being invited to do so right? I think UNLV is that way, any idea about other schools?
Yeyyy said:it seems like about half of the schools have a supplemental application. I think only 2 or 3 (out of 12) of the schools i'm applying to are going to ask for a supplemental app.
You know what I am tired of supplemental applications, I thought I was on the ball filling submitting my application in june, but look its already past the middle of August and I'm still not done with the supplemental apps. I should have done what my friend did for med school, she only applied to schools where she didn't have to write essays or supplemtals.
