The Common App is a vital part of many seniors’ college applications. The application is meant to eliminate the need for entering the same monotonous information into multiple applications and no need to keep track of all those individual school log-ins.
This also means that the student has one chance to perfect their application and essay before submitting in and waiting months for the acceptances to hopefully start rolling in.
At least one of those spoke to you. Right? Jot down which prompt resonated with you the most, and start outlining your ideas for the essay. First, break it down into 2-4 main ideas you want to discuss. Then, write a detail or two for each idea. Last, craft an introduction and a conclusion (and make sure they are captivating!) Make sure that you have someone read over it before you submit it!
Common App opens August 1 for the 2021-2022 school year. If you get started on this now, you’ll have the hardest part over before it’s even time to begin.
