If I applied to a school early action but get deferred, can I edit my commonapp essays before the regular application deadline?
Yes. Just copy and paste the new one in before you apply to the new schools (and make sure in the preview they’re right).
Not for the original school, but you can change it for the schools you haven’t applied to yet.
So if I can’t change my essays for the university I applied early action to?
@tytbound No- you already submitted your application there, essays and all. As intparent said (and to clarify my original point) you can only change it for the next several schools you apply to.
Could resubmit an application? Like actually re-pay the application fee.
@tytbound I don’t think that’s allowed, especially since you’re deferred (ie app pushed off to the regular round).
Still no.
