Is the Coast Guard Academy on the Common App?

I'm in the process of applying to various colleges and was wondering if the Coast Guard Academy is available through the Common Application. Does anyone have an idea if I need to apply separately or can I use the Common App?

The U.S. Coast Guard Academy does not actually use the Common Application. Instead, it has its own separate application process that you'll need to follow directly through its own admissions portal.

So, you would visit the official US Coast Guard Academy website and navigate to their Admissions section. There you will find detailed information and instructions on how to apply. This will likely involve creating an account through their portal and filling out their application form.

In addition to the application form, you might be required to submit supplementary materials such as your high school transcript, SAT/ACT scores, and letters of recommendation. Remember to pay special attention to deadlines and requirements as they may differ from other colleges you are applying to via the Common App.

One last thing is that the admissions process of the U.S. service academies including the Coast Guard Academy is often more extensive than traditional colleges, involving fitness assessments and medical examinations, so ensure to plan ahead and start the process early.
