YES!!!!
- Since H uses the common app, as theri only app, it asks for you to describe an extracurricular activity that has had the most meaning to you and why. (250 words). In addition, the Harvrad supplement has " supplemental" essay topics. Usually these are for you to describe overwhelming circumstances or ethinicity based stuff. I HIGHLY recommend that in addition to your main one and your EC one, you submit an additional. If it presents another perspective of you not seen in your app, DO IT!

If the essay is optional for Harvard, can you use the essay that other universities ask for?

Spookysculder: You're welcome. Papa: I suppose so, just make sure you include the prompt.
