<p>After spending the past hour messing around with formatting on the online common app, i am still nowhere. In both the EC short answer and personal statement, all the paragraphs are indented except for the first. When I add spaces to this paragraph they don't save. I know this is pretty minor, but it bothers me because in print preview the essays look kind of strange with no indent before the first paragraph (i am a little obsessive about such things..) Has anyone else had (or fixed) this problem, or is it just how the program works and I am wasting my time trying to fix it? THANKS</p>
