除以上三个Essays外，Common Application里还有一个备选的Additional Information，如果还有需要补充的信息，可以在这里补充。所以可以在这里提交一个Additional Essay。
4 Additional Information(备选。字数没有明确限制，但是一般控制在一页以内，也就是不超过500词。)
If there is any additional information you’d like to provide regarding special circumstances, additional qualifications, etc., please do so in the space below or on an attached sheet.
需要特别注意的是，在整套申请材料里没有体现出来的非常有价值的信息，可以通过Additional Information提供。但是一定不要提供重复信息。否则会有副作用。

整套申请材料里的Essays大概就是这些。也有些学校不使用the Common Application，但他们要求的Essays一般都类似于上述题目。例如，University of California(Berkeley and Los Angeles)要求两篇250-500词的Essays:
两篇250-500词essay:
1 Describe the world you come from — for example, your family, community or school — and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations. 250-500 words.(描述一下你所处的环境，如你的家庭、社区或学校，告诉我们你的环境是如何影响你的梦想和抱负的。)
2 Tell us about a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution or experience that is important to you. What about this quality or accomplishment makes you proud, and how does it relate to the person you are? *250-500 words.(告诉我们对你来说很重要的一项个人品质、个人能力、个人成就、个人贡献或个人经历，并说明这些品质或成就是如何让你感到自豪的？这些品质和成就对你的影响有哪些？)
不过，也有些学校为了彰显个性，会设置一些比较宽泛的题目。所以，在具体的申请过程中，一定要先选校，再准备文书。
