<p>This question is just out of pure curiosity. Nowadays, stanford wants everyone to submit their apps online. When the adcoms read the applications, do they read them on comp screens or do they print the tens of thousands of apps out (an awful lot of paper)? Or maybe they only print the competitive ones out? Do different colleges have their own ways of doing this?</p>

<p>I don't know if any of you would know the answer to this. I'm curious.</p>

<p>Cornell reads them on a computer, they even scan paper apps onto a computer to read them, so the lady from Cornell Engineering on my tour of the campus said they prefer an online application, saves them work.</p>
