Okay, so I'm a bit confused with the whole Common App system. Could someone walk me through the process of how to sign up for Common App? I want to make sure I'm not missing any crucial steps or deadlines!
Absolutely, I'd be happy to guide you through the initial steps for signing up on the Common App. First things first, you'll want to head to the Common App's official website. Once there, look for the 'Apply now' button or the 'Create an Account' link. The process is pretty straightforward from there: you'll provide some basic information about yourself, such as name, address, contact details, and date of birth.
Once your account is set up, you'll find a dashboard where you can manage your applications. Don't forget to check out the 'College Search' tab to add colleges to your list. Lastly, be mindful of the different deadlines for each college you're applying to; they can all be added to your 'My Colleges' list, which will help you keep track of each institution's specific requirements and due dates. Stick to those deadlines, and you should be golden! Happy applying!
