Footnote in a SOP?

[zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

I am writing a "concise" academic statement of purpose for a MA regional studies program. In it, I partly explain my undergraduate language study, and I say I am planning to apply to two well known summer programs to make up for lacking undergraduate course availabilty.

However, I am not applying to the program run by a school to which I am applying (it starts the same Monday my spring finals start). To mention this in the text of the SOP would be quite a meander from the the current flow and I was wondering if I should put it in a footnote?

Or should I put it in an "additional information" section? (I don't have anything else to put in such a section) I am worried about not mentioning it because they might think I haven't done my homework about the program.

Any advice on including an explanatory footnote would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you.

Sounds like putting it in the additional information section can't hurt. I don't think it needs to be in the SOP.
