Your common app essay should be the same for all colleges. That’s why it’s called the “Common App Essay.” Colleges don’t want to hear why you wish to attend their school in the common app essay, so there is no need to modify that essay. They want to learn more about you in that essay. If they want to know why you want to attend their school specifically, they will have an essay on their supplement that calls for it. That’s where you will write unique essays for each school in the supplement.
