Common app and checking status?

<p>How does one see the status of the application if one applied using Common App online? I would like to see if all my schools have received all required documents without having to call each and every school individually. Thanks.</p>

<p>Sometimes the school will send you account info to check your status on their website.</p>

<p>Short answer: You can't. The fact that you applied with the Common App is irrelevant. The Common App tracks only itself and any on-line supplements. If a school has given you the account, as world changer notes, you might be able to check on-line. But you have to do that separately for each college. Some schools don't even do that; you do have to call if you want to know, or just wait until they notify you that something's missing.</p>
