I first got into a college Fall 2015, but I’ve been on medical leave since the Spring semester on. Because I have so few credits from the college (though I have plenty of AP credits from high school, if that matters), colleges I’m applying to now seem to have varying criteria as to whether this would be considered a first-year application or a transfer one.
Should I create two Common App accounts, just one, or ditch the Common App altogether for this scenario?
Best bet is to probably email the colleges’ regional admin officers and ask them what you should do. They’ll be able to look at your situation more specifically and tell you under what option to apply.
Email commonapp, explaining that you are considered a freshman by some colleges, and a transfer by others, due to having a few post-graduation college credits - how does the application handle that? I don’t think you can have two accounts. Or, look a Coalition App to see if you can apply as one category there, and another category for commonapp???
