COMMON APP is a nonprofit organization of 1000+ colleges and universities that simplifies, informs, and supports your college application journey.

The Common Application is an undergraduate college admission application that applicants may use to apply to over 1,000 member colleges, universities, and community colleges in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, as well as in Canada, Australia, China, Japan, and many European countries.

Applying using the Common app allows students to fill out one application and submit it to multiple colleges and universities, saving time and effort compared to applying separately to each institution.

When applying via the Common Application (Common App), there are generally four types of application decisions that colleges can offer:

1. Early Decisions (ED I & ED II): This is a binding application, meaning that if you're accepted, you must attend the school. You can only apply to one college under Early Decision. If accepted, you must withdraw any other college applications.

2. Early Action (EA): This is a non-binding option that allows you to apply early and receive a decision sooner. If you're accepted, you still have the freedom to apply to other schools and make your final decision by the regular decision deadline.

3. Regular Decision (RD): This is the most common application option. It is non-binding, and you typically receive a decision in the spring. It allows you to apply to as many schools as you wish.

4. Rolling Admission: Schools with rolling admissions evaluate applications as they come in and continue to accept students until their class is full. This process is non-binding, and there is usually no strict deadline.

Each option has different deadlines and requirements, so it's important to check each college's policy on the Common App. It’s highly recommended that you start your application as early as possible so you can apply in the first decisions before their deadlines hence giving you a high chance of getting a full scholarship.
Also, watch how you can fill out the recommenders account forms and submit their Recommendation letters on Common app
