<p>I was deferred from Yale, and, as I set to work on the rest of my applications, I'm beginning to wonder if I should change/edit my common app essay. It's fairly intricate and I'm worried that its significance doesn't come through after a single read.</p>
<p>Anyone want to take a look?</p>
<p>Wait… I thought that you can’t edit your commonapp anymore after you submitted it?</p>
<p>You can. </p>
<p>Rocker, I’ll critique if you don’t mind a 2014er.</p>
<p>i’ll read it</p>
<p>rocker, I’ll take a look.
you’ve probably seen me on the Yale deferred thread :p</p>
<p>I can help you take a look, I was accepted to Yale.</p>
<p>Rocker, you probably know anyway 
but please be careful who you give your essays out to as some people might still be applying to other universities even if they’ve been deferred/accepted. As this is the net, it’s best to be safe. Try parents, trusted adults on CC or current students, or find someone trusted in real life (like a teacher, friend, parent). Best of luck.</p>
<p>Sure…just pm me. though i was deferred from yale :(</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>No, you can’t. Only the supplement, not the common app.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You can make a new version of the common app and edit whatever you want =]</p>
<p>I’ll take a look rocket, but I’m applying to both Princeton and Yale this year.</p>
