Common Application for ED/EA and RD

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

Hey everyone. I’m a junior in high school and I had a question about the Common App process for ED/EA and RD.

When you select the colleges that you want the Common App to send my application to, do I have to fill out different apps for ED/EA and RD? Let’s say that I want to apply to College B for EA and College C for RD. The deadline for that is Nov 1st-ish, which is much earlier than the RD deadline. On Oct 30, I would submit the common app for EA to College B. Would I have to fill out another application to apply to College C for RD? I realize that I have to write the supplement for College C. What I don’t know is whether I have to fill out my personal information, common app essays, etc on a new common application.

Thanks in advance!

Nope. The Common App is common for whichever plan you are using (EA/RD). When filling out the information for a specific college, it will ask RD or EA and you select which plan you will be applying under. Then, you submit the Common App to the school, and you’re done
