Wondering if it might be helpful or frowned upon if my DS added any pictures to the "optional upload" part of the application? He plans to include a pretty standard resume there, but has 2 pics of him on a sailboat and in the water teaching disabled kids to swim that I (very biased!) love and show his personality and spirit. Any input would be very appreciated, this application seems so different than a standard college one that I'm not sure what is best. Only about 2 weeks and the application will be in! Thanks
 
If one of the essays is about it, I would say that it could be a nice supplement, but if the pictures would be standalone I'm not sure how much they would add, but that's just personal opinion/conjecture.
 
My DS included several photos in the optional section, along with a description of how they tied in to his life experiences and leadership skills. (He's now a 2-C at the Academy)

DS ended up emailing AO to ask this question and reply was "Do not worry about photos-we typically do not accept."
