<p>on the common app, can you really use different essays for different colleges?
they say you should use the same essay but i cant help wonder if you can use different essays. if so, how?
thanks soo much!!</p>
<p>you can use different essays for different colleges. however, you must make a new commonapp to do so. there are directions on the commonapp website about how to do this.</p>
<p>btw tal105 i read your U of chicago essay. A bit brave of you to post it on an open forum like that. never the less I really liked it. the topic was great. it seems like just hte kind of off-the-wall topic that u of chicago will appretiate. i do think that you could edit a bit more though.</p>
<p>^^^
1st i want to say thanks very much for the comment
2nd i made some revisions to it. sorta tried to explain pageants and then i took out the gushy ending lol.
3rd i will NEVER EVER post my essays up again. i read that post in the essays forum after i posted it. then i felt rly stupid.
tsk tsk :(</p>
<p>yes look at the commonapp website
it involves making different versions of your common app
HOWEVER
be very very careful that you keep track of which version is which, so that you send the right version to the right school =]</p>
