Application already turned-in, but can send teaching evals

[hejduk]

My final application is already turned-in, but the grad secretary noted that I could continue to send in documents as needed. I've been adjuncting now for 3 semesters, and really believe my teaching experience is a major plus. While they are training researchers, my field (Communications) does heavily utilize TAs for teaching.

Is it appropriate, or hopefully helpful, to send my teaching evaluations (which are all really positive)? I'm trying to send anything that will put me "over the top". My GRE is low, and I'm fighting to get my first admit!

I don't have any personal experience with this specific dilemma of sending teaching evals. But just from reading your post: the grad secretary did tell you it's possible to submit further documents. What have you got to lose? I think you should send your evals, worst case scenario - they don't review it.
