Common App

The Common Application (Common App) is an online platform that streamlines the college application process by allowing students to apply to multiple colleges using one standardized application form. Instead of filling out separate applications for each school, students can complete their personal information, essays, and recommendations once and submit them to many participating institutions. This saves time and effort while maintaining consistency across applications. Many colleges and universities in the U.S. and abroad accept the Common App, making it a popular tool for students seeking higher education opportunities.
