Additional letter to Admissions Committee?

[anthgraduate]

Since applying, I have been accepted to present my research at two national conferences. I thought about sending a letter to inform the adcoms. Thoughts?

I guess it would depend on how big of a difference adding that to your application would be--if something huge happened to me after sending in my applications, I would probably send in an updated CV with a cover letter.

Send an updated CV - the worst that will happen is they will throw it out and use the old one anyway. Doesn't hurt, right?

Something similar happened to me. I contacted the person/location I sent the supporting documents to, and every school was very helpful. I wasn't sure how to proceed, but what each school did was to update my file on their end, based on the email I sent. The CGS at my top school printed out our correspondence + my acceptance email and added it to my file.

Good luck with everything, and congratulations on your acceptance.
