<p>My son typed in the answers to the questions in the "Future Plans" section of the CA. You can see his answers on the computer. However, when he does Print Preview and prints it out, nothing at all shows under "Future Plans"--ie no answers at all. Why is this? (He is applying ED to a college--maybe they don't want Future Plans so it somehow gets wiped out??)</p>
<p>Somewhere on the Common App website there was an explanation that the Future Plans section does not show up on the PDF version. So, that is perfectly normal.</p>
<p>Here is the specific quote from the Common App website: under Instructions, Printing Your Common App, it says, “Preview will not populate information in the Future Plans area of the PDF.”</p>
<p>after you submit the app, and then click on view application, it will show you all future plan entries correctly. You just have to trust it.</p>
<p>Thanks firsttimeparent and collagedad! I appreciate your explaining this to us!</p>
