The Common Application

The Common Application was created to simplify the admissions process.  A common application is one application that you fill out online and send to all of your colleges of choice.  This saves time in applying to 10 different schools with 10 different applications.  The only issue is that not all colleges will accept the common application (more than 400 do).  You must check with your specific college to see if they accept the common application.  You can find out more about the common application and start the process by visiting:  www.commonapp.org
