Customized Application
Many schools create their own admission applications. Contact the school to request a copy. Carefully follow the instructions on each form.
Common Application
The Common Application is the recommended form of 298 selective, independent colleges and universities for admission to their undergraduate programs. Many of these institutions use the form exclusively. All give equal consideration to the Common Application and the college's own form. Experience with the Common Application over a period of 20 years has demonstrated its advantages to students, counselors, and teachers. The concept is simple: Students complete one Common Application, photocopy it, and send the form to any of the participating colleges. The procedure simplifies the college application process and eliminates duplication of effort. Colleges may require additional supplements to the common app and it’s the student’s responsibility to complete such information and mail (or send online) to meet all deadlines.
The Ivies, along with many other elite colleges, also tend to require Common App supplements. If your school is one of the 298 colleges and universities that accept this form, you can get a copy from your guidance office, complete the application online, or download a copy. A time-saving benefit of this application is you complete it once, and you can send the same application to multiple schools.
Two-part Application
If your school uses a two-part application, submit Part I (which contains basic questions such as name and address) as soon as possible. September is not too early. The school will send you Part II after reviewing Part I. Contact your choice schools to request this application.
