Addendum with transfer app?

Post by stinger35 » Wed Jan 27, 2010 1:23 am

i just looked at the GULC early acceptance application for the first time and noticed it had the same 4 questions as most normal applications about probation from school, criminal convictions, etc.

I got arrested for underage drinking as a freshman in college so I am not all that worried about it but should I use a similar addendum as I did for applying to law school in the first place? Mine was rather long and addressed some academic issues I had during my freshman year as well. Just wondering if I should send the same one or if they dont care as much.

Thanks for the help. (Any advice from transfers out there that did this would be greatly appreciated)

I rewrote my addendum. Applying it was wordy and probably gave away too much information. I made it much more concise for transferring . Instead of explaining the situation in detail I just listed the date, location, charge, end result. Then at the bottom just threw in a blurb about how it helped expose me to law and grow as a person.
