Hoping to get advice on whether to use the Baylor Select Application over the Common App. In looking them over, Baylor Common App has a section to add optional recommendations, a resume option and the essay is not required. In the Baylor Select App, there’s a short essay to write, but no where to add a resume or recommendations. I’d love to hear about thoughts on one over the other. Is one more preferred?? Thanks!
If you use Baylor Select App, it will give you the option to add recommendations and resume after you submit the requirement information. The resume and recommendations are listed as “optional” but you can add them in the Baylor Select App if you choose to go that method.
Just as a technical consideration, the Baylor Select App is their own system. If you use Common App, you then are relying on the transfer of information from Common App into Baylor’s system and technical system issues could happen. Why not input your information directly into Baylor’s system. Just one perspective.
The common app’s character restrictions frustrate me so I opted for the Baylor app where you upload all of your materials after.
