<p>Haven't gotten any replies the two times I posted a similar question in the Common App forum, so I figured I'd give it a try here.</p>
<p>I was wondering whether one can go back and change the main essay after submission to a school. For example, I am applying to UNC EA and the application is due by October 15. However, I don't really have an essay written yet... If I do some essay and submit it by Saturday, can I go back and replace it with another essay for later aplications (RD and EA due by November 1)?</p>
<p>Once you’ve submitted your application to a college, there is no way to change your essay or any other part of the application for that college via the CA for THAT school. </p>
<p>Once you submit the CA to one school, you can make different versions where you change the essay or any other part of the application, for submission to OTHER schools. The CA gives instructions for making different versions.</p>
<p>Thanks for the reply entomom. If I have multiple colleges listed under My Colleges when I submit to the first school, will I be able to move those later on, or will they receive the same application I sent to the first?</p>
<p>Basically, should I remove all other colleges from the My Colleges page before my first submission?</p>
