Better Get a Common App Account Started!

<p>Colleges are always sure to pick up those students who are diligent and the first to act. That’s why I suggest that everyone at least start your Common App accounts now! Colleges can see these start dates and will definitely be mindful of those that start their accounts early to work on the application!</p>

<p>Colleges don’t see when you create your account. They only see it when you submit it.</p>

<p>Nevertheless, the colleges will side towards those that are submitted earlier! It’s best to get the accounts up as soon as possible!</p>

<p>Actually, colleges CAN see when you’ve created the account if you add them to your list of colleges and start filling out their application. So kyldonia is right!</p>

<p>Hm, really? And I thought kyldonia was kidding.</p>

<p>Does this mean the colleges can see where else you are applying by looking at your list of colleges?</p>

<p>No. The Common App would know better. The colleges shouldn’t be able to see the other one’s you’ve applied to.</p>

<p>Wait, so the college can see when you’ve added them to your list, or when you actually create the CApp account? Why would this even matter to them…?</p>

<p>The sooner that you are more interested in a college, the more they assume you wish to go there. That’s why I created my account today and started looking up all the schools to which I want to apply.</p>

<p>kyl-On what do you base this idea that starting one’s application early will help? Just speculation, right? Not that I disagree. Got an app goin’ right now :)</p>
