    Hey Eleni! Your videos were always very helpful. But I have one more question. For those of us who can't visit our colleges, how can we find information that we can base our supplements on?

    • @eleniarizona

      i actually didn't really use any information from visiting colleges- the information they provide is pretty vague. go on each school's website & check out their student group & department websites & use that as a starting out point

    for the extracurriculars essay, should the activity you talk about be related to your major or does it not really matter?

    • @eleniarizona
      @eleniarizona  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      mine wasn't related, just because i thought i was talking about my major too much already haha

    also, for the major one, what if u don't know ur major lol

    • @eleniarizona
      @eleniarizona  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      i think in the prompt they'll tell you to just write about some of your interests instead

      eleni arizona oo okie,,, do u think they like it more if u do have a definite major ? also like. if i write abt a certain major does it have to be the one i actually do?¿

    • @eleniarizona
      @eleniarizona  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      there's definitely nothing wrong with writing undecided, but i'd personally just pick a major that fits my interests and extracurriculars, especially because yeah unless you're applying to a specific school within the university, they don't hold you to the major you put on your app

    Any opinions on showing your political views in supplements?

    • @eleniarizona
      @eleniarizona  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      if it's in line with your best estimate of those of the school/admissions officers, go for it. if not, steer clear lol

    Can you make a video reading your Cornell supplement?

  • @alexastyles8699

    Do you think it's okay to indicate in a supplemental essay if a school is your top-choice?

    • @eleniarizona
      @eleniarizona  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      i don't think it would bad, i would just be a little cautious about using the phrase "first choice" because for a school that's super selective, it's probably most of its applicants' first choice school, so saying that in your app doesn't really mean anything to them

    • @alexastyles8699
      @alexastyles8699 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Okay, thank you!
