Learn how admissions officers evaluate your Common Application. Students will be guided, step-by-step, through each and every section and learn exactly what information to include and exclude to ensure the strongest possible application.

We will discuss the answers to questions such as:

• Does “optional” mean you need to complete it?
• What test scores do I need to self-report?
• Can you send different essays to different schools?
• Can you change career interests once the application has been submitted?
• Is it ok to apply as “undecided” or choose a major which you are unsure about?

Strategies for completing supplements to the Common Application will also be discussed.

Participants should bring a laptop computer or tablet with them for this hands on workshop. Register now!
