Are downloaded applications in Common App seen by colleges?

I found a way to download my application details from the Common App, and I'm curious if colleges can see that I've downloaded it. It's kind of a random question, I know, but just want to cover all my bases. Thanks!

No, colleges won't be able to see if you've downloaded your application details from the Common App. Downloading the information is meant for your personal records and reference. The colleges only see the actual data you submit when you complete your application, not actions like viewing or downloading parts of it. So you don't need to worry about covering this base – colleges won't know or care if you've downloaded your application info. Good luck with your applications!
