Additional Supporting Documentation
Posted: Fri Mar 12, 2010 3:12 am
What are everyone's opinions on sending in additional supporting documentation to schools you are waitlisted for and for schools you're simply waiting for?
For instance, I recently completed a TESOL training course (I'm an ESL teacher) and am considering sending in a PDF of my cert ("Hey, look what I've been up to in my spare time").
I was also thinking about sending in something to further elucidate my 'extracurriculars'. I have been involved in a lot of theatre, and could send them a theatrical resume ("This is the extent to which I have been involved...").
Good idea? Bad idea? I have come up with plenty of arguments for both sides...would love to hear yours!
