The Burlington High School Guidance Department highly recommends that seniors create a student account on the Common Application Website ASAP.
What is the Common Application?
The Common Application allows a student to complete ONE application which can be sent to multiple colleges.
How many colleges and/or universities subscribe to the Common Application?
Currently nearly 500 colleges and/or universities are Common App members
Why use it?
Once completed online or in print, copies of the Application for Undergraduate Admission can be sent to any number of participating colleges. The same is true of the School Report, Midyear Report, Final Report and Teacher Evaluation forms. This allows you to spend less time on the busywork of applying for admission, and more time on what's really important: college research, visits, essay writing, and senior year coursework.
