<p>hi,
i'm applyin to one early decision school and one early action school on the common apps..but what do i do if i only want to send the EA apps now and the ED one later on in like january?</p>
<p>Do I take off the ED college, submit the EA, and then add the ED?</p>
<p>Help please!</p>
<p>I actually got locked out of applying to any more schools through Common App. Anyone have any suggestions to remedy that, beside for signing up for a new account?</p>
<p>Rocky - I am not sure what you are asking. You submit your common app to each school seperately. The app will be exactly the same, though, since they will lock it. If there is a supplement, that will be different.</p>
<p>Murky - I have no idea. I think you need to go paper. I think you have too many schools, since I am pretty sure the limit is pretty high. Consider deleting a couple. You will not be able to make a new account. People have tried it- if you info in the same (name, address, etc) they will tell you that you already have an account.</p>
<p>Rocky, if you want to apply ED, you probably have a deadline of November 1st. So you can’t apply in January if you want to do ED. </p>
<p>But I think you probably knew that. Did you mean that you want to apply to the ED college, say Carnegie Mellon or whatever, in January through RD instead of ED? If that’s what you want to do, just uncheck Carnegie Mellon from ED and put it in RD. And then put the EA colleges under EA. Then just send in those apps.</p>
<p>Battlecruiser, some schools have EDII, which could have deadlines between Jan. 1 and Jan. 31 or so. Rocky may be referring to that.</p>
<p>ok..so wen i submit the common app, it wont submit the supplments right? because im applying ed for emory and rd for jh and i dont have time right now to do the jh supplment right now..so if i submit the common app with jh and emory checked and the emory supplement, i wont be locked out of the jh supplement right?</p>
<p>if you are rejected/deferred ED you can call CA tech support and they will unlock your file for RD changes.</p>
<p>ok, well im applyin for the scholars program, but its contingent on whether or not i get the scholarship..so im puttin rd but i have to turn it in before nov 1 for scholarship rules…so concerning the jh supplement, will that lock if i submit the main common apps?</p>
<p>I didn’t apply to too many schools. I simply submitted the application and now want to add another school.</p>
<p>The supplements don’t lock until you submit them. Submitting the Common App itself doesn’t affect the supplements.</p>
<p>But I still need to send the MAIN Common Application to another school. I am not just talking about the supplement. I did not ADD the school to my list when I sent my Common Application off to every college.</p>
<p>Right, murkywater; I was replying to Rocky’s post, directly above yours. You cannot change the main common app. You can, however, send it to as many colleges as the Common App allows.</p>
<p>Murky - It seems what you are saying is that you sent your CA to some schools. Now you want to add another school and it wont let you?
I know there is a limit to the number of schools you can send the app, but I am not sure what it is. If you think you are below this threshold (you can check this yourself) and you still cannot add schools, then by all means email tech support.</p>
<p>It’s not about a limit. It gets grayed out because I have already SENT the Common Application. It’s not about the number of colleges, because I only applied to 9 through the application. It’s just that I sent in the Common Application already, and cannot add another school because it is grayed out. It is grayed out because it is already sent.</p>
<p>.. Does that makes sense?</p>
<p>so what ur saying is that once u send it ur app to one school, u cant add any more schools that werent on there already</p>
<p>this is why i recommend applying to one school at a time on the common app list one school fill out the supplement and apply then go back add another fill out supplement and apply and so forth. anyone agree with my method?</p>
<p>You should be able to send the application to more colleges, murkywater. We can’t see what you’re doing, so can’t advise you on how to do it. Contact the Common App people and they will tell you exactly want to do. Phone contact is best.</p>
<p>Canes12, your method should work just fine.</p>
