Getting rid of unique app?

I heard that UChicago is getting rid of its unique application in favor of the common application

Is this true and will they keep the strange essay questions?

In a way, I was looking forward to answering the weird essay questions...

Conduct a search of this forum for more information...

but the information everyone is receiving is faulty. Yes, we are switching to the Common App, but applicants will also be required to respond to the Uncommon App supplement which will have those strange essay questions you're referring to.

I think we're also preserving the uncommon app interface, for those who still want to do it.

i absolutely ABSOLUTELY love the uncommon app. the other univ specific apps (especially ivy league) are rather stark. At least there's no explicit word limits.
