ECs and Common App

<p>i was just looking through the common app and I realize you don't need to indicate what year you recieved a medal or award do you? Theres just the blurb on the side where you indicate your awards, positions held, etc. Do you need to mention the year then?</p>

<p>If not, is an award won in your freshman year pretty much the same as one in your junior year, etc.? </p>

<p>Also what is the Post Graduate bubble supposed to mean for ECs? arent we applying for post graduate?</p>

<p>You bubble in the year; see page 4: <a href=“https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/Docs/DownloadForms/2012/2012-13FY-FinalHighlightedPreview.pdf[/url]”>https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/Docs/DownloadForms/2012/2012-13FY-FinalHighlightedPreview.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
