Major Platforms
The Common Application, Coalition Application, and university specific portals are the most widely used platforms. Each has unique features, but all require personal information, academic history, activities, and essays.
Choosing a Platform
Students should review which platforms their colleges accept. Some institutions allow multiple options, while others require a specific platform.
Managing Multiple Platforms
Students applying to many colleges may need to navigate more than one system. Staying organized with a checklist or spreadsheet helps ensure accuracy.
Staying Consistent
Information should be consistent across all platforms to avoid confusion.
