Common App allow students to apply easily

The Common App allows juniors and seniors to apply to colleges throughout the United States with ease.

If students are looking to apply to colleges, the Common App may be a resource for them to use.

“The Common App is for students looking to apply to colleges,” college and career counselor Randy Trevino said. “The school has a deadline, but it varies by school. The Common App itself has no deadline.”

The Common App is perfect for students who wish to apply to several colleges/universities across the U.S. Many East coast schools accept the Common App as their preferred application venue and a list of complete Common App-accepting schools can be found in Naviance or by visiting the Common App website.

Although the Common App is a tool for students to consider, ApplyTexas can be seen as more resourceful as all Texas public colleges and universities are required by law to accept the ApplyTexas application. By creating a profile, a student can apply to as many Texas schools as necessary by selecting a school and submitting any of the individual school’s preferred information.

“I used the Common App and ApplyTexas and it helped me apply to all the schools that I wanted to apply to,” 2014 graduate Hannah Drees said. “It made it a lot easier.”

For incoming seniors, Common App and ApplyTexas may be considerations when applying to colleges.

“I’ve heard a bit about the Common App,” senior Tommy O’Connor said. “I think it’s a good use when you’re applying to colleges.”

I enjoy playing football, watching ESPN all day, and hanging out with friends. I have played sports since I was 4 years old, and currently just play football. I guess I’m a little above average height and I’m always eating food or drinking chocolate milk. I enjoy being a sophomore and like Lovejoy.
