Hand written applications

<p>Do many people fill out applications by hand or are they generally just done on the computer?</p>

<p>I’m handwriting my Taft, MX, and Andover applications because they can’t be done online as far as I know. I’m doing SPS and Choate online, though. :)</p>

<p>What schools do you know of that takes the online application? It’s so much easier!</p>

<p>I actually haven’t even checked if the schools I’m applying to have online applications, I never even thought about it until now. Haha if I did them online I’d probably be paranoid they wouldn’t get it or something.</p>

<p>Call me old fashioned but the only one i’m doing online is Choate. I like handwriting them, just don’t smudge if you’re a lefty.</p>

<p>some advice… if you can do them online, DO IT ONLINE. Saves SOO much time. hand writing the applications can be a pain in the…butt. hahaha</p>

<p>just take the opportunity to do online applications.</p>

<p>I just checked and only 1 of the 5 has an online application so I guess I’ll be handwriting them whether i like it or not :slight_smile: thanks</p>

<p>Hm…strange…
Cuz the secondary school counselor at Eaglebrook is telling
everyone to NOT apply online…</p>

<p>Why would they say that, LLL?</p>

<p>Andover and Choate says that they prefer it to be online, but I guess if it’s hand written it looks a little more personal.</p>

<p>For Choate’s application, where can we put the awards on it?</p>

<p>For EC’s they have a section for awards. What type of award was it?</p>

<p>Also, do you think it’s bad if I had categories like Sports and put tennis and soccer in that one form, then for school competitions i put geography bee winner and spelling bee winner? There was no way I could fit all my EC’s in six boxes!</p>

<p>Actually they don’t have a section for awards.
They give you six boxes let you fill the activities in, you can only put the activities related awards in those boxes, but I have some awards don’t count in the activities I put in the boxes.</p>

<p>So which schools accept online applications other than Choate and Andover??</p>

<p>Let.Love.Live., any idea why the Eaglebrook counselor is telling people to not apply online?</p>

<p>handwriting was a real pain. i typed whatever i could but most of the apps required some writing.</p>

<p>Let.Love.Live
There is no online application for Andover.</p>

<p>Lexima, I don’t have a clue, but i’m following their advice :)</p>

<p>bestswimmer, my bad</p>

<p>Ok. I have many awards for one of my activites, and there is no way i can fit it all in the charts the schools give. I attached a separate sheet, telling them my awards.</p>
