<p>Does anyone know of any clear advantages to the Universal App over the Common App? For instance, doesn't the Universal App allow more words for the essay whereas the CA is limited to 650?</p>
<p>any others people who have been thru the process can cite?</p>
<p>The word limit is a suggestion, the formatting is simple and the questions are better. Wish more schools used it.</p>
<p>I thought the questions were the same, anyone know last year or this year’s questions for the main essay? I think the supplemental questions are the same as the Common App for each college.</p>
