Common Application or Common App Goes Online Today

Common Application or also called Common App goes online today, August 1, 2010. The Common Application is a not-for-profit organization that provides an admission application – online and in print – that students may submit to any one of 414 member schools — 47 of them public institutions — that accept it.

It was hoped when the Common Application was developed in 1975 that it would ease the admissions process for students by reducing the number of separate applications a student applying to numerous colleges would have to complete. As it has developed, many colleges still require additional information, including more essays.

Visit commonapp.org for the forms.
