<p>yeah, common app ftmfl</p>
<p>Yeah, I log in, I try to get to another version of my app, and then it logs me out. I'm soooo psyched.</p>
<p>I guess I'd better get my essay finished earlier than planned...</p>
<p>hm its speeding up for me</p>
<p>If you run into problems uploading essays, make sure you have any pop-up blockers disabled.</p>
<p>speeding up!!!!!</p>
<p>I am pretty sure they will have the infrastructure put in place to prevent this; even if they do, I think most sympathetic admission offices will give everyone a day of extra time.</p>
<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I don't know if I messed up, but I think I might have caused a slight problem with my Common Application.</p>
<p>I already submitted the Duke supplement a few weeks ago.</p>
<p>Today, I just submitted the Common Application part for Stanford.</p>
<p>I want to make a change for Duke only but it seems that the application is locked...</p>
<p>Now, when I make a different version... I notice the Duke supplement part is not there. It only appears to be associated with the first version.</p>
<p>Again, I don't even know if this is a problem. Maybe I should just submit the application knowing that they already got the supplement? What would you suggest?</p>
<p>It is locked into the original version (or whichever version it was in when you submitted the supplement). I made the same mistake, but for Pton. </p>
<p>If there is absolutely something you need to change/add/remove, submit it and talk to Duke directly.</p>
<p>You can move the Duke supplement to your new version of the common app. Go to your college list for original version, and select the box next to Duke, then select "move" to whatever the name of your new version is. Be sure to check over the new version because some of the uploads don't transfer to an alternate version. Hope this helps!</p>
<p>I thought that once u submitted one part, the other part was locked.</p>
<p>I had the same problem, but I contacted Common App and asked them to move my supplement to the new version of the Common App that I created. I had to ask twice, the first help person told me that as per the instructions it was too late to change anything. On my second request, the help person did it right away.</p>
<p>Re my post above, I guess I should have said you need to move Duke as one of the colleges to the new version of the app, and it would allow you to make changes and send it to Duke. I haven't experienced trying to move a supplement after submitting it. I think the OP is trying to submit a review main app to Duke, not a revised supplement (which cannot be done).</p>
<p>For the short answers question, the one where you elaborate on one of your activities, is the limit 150 words or 3500 characters?</p>
<p>How long should it usually take for the status to go from "submitted" to "downloaded" ? All but one college downloaded it pretty fast, but one of them is taking a really long time. Does it matter?</p>
<p>the common app site claims that after you submit a supplement from an older commonapp version to a college you cannot submit a new revised common app to the college..
i have the same problem..
i submitted the bc and middlebury's supplement using my original common app but i just made a new version of the common app and i wanna send that to bc and middlebury..i have not yet sent the main common app part yet..</p>
<p>No, it doesn't matter how long it takes the college to download the application. What matters is that you got your application submitted before the deadline.</p>
<p>Also, for some colleges that were "all-in-one" institutions my son's supplement was shown as being downloaded for a long time and the main CA was still shown as just being submitted. Both had actually been downloaded but it took a really long time for the status to change for the main CA for those schools.</p>
<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am hoping that someone here can help me out. I had a very atypical high school experience, and need to give a lot of extra info and explanations. My guidance counselor had suggested that I do so in a more literary/essay format rather than just a list of "hey, here's what happened". </p>
<p>I wrote something that is three pages long (double spaced - about 900 words), but now as I'm sitting here the day before applications are due I'm starting to freak out a little. Is that much too long? Will admission's officers be upset by the length? I know that brevity is usually better in these situations, but I really feel like I won't be able to do a good job of explaining everything if I go any shorter.</p>
<p>Any advice in the next day or so would be VERY appreciated. Thank you in advance!</p>
<p>(FYI I did touch on some of my weirdness in my essay, but I really didn't feel like an essay was the place to get into a more technical explanation.)</p>
<p>I HAVE A QUESTION.
Ok. So I'm completely DONE with everything and want to send all of my information in from common app. All of my colleges (except one) requrie an all-in one, like stanford. </p>
<p>How do i submit the supplement and common app AT THE SAME TIME?!?!</p>
<p>It's not that you have to submit them at the same time, per-say - they just both have to be submitted before your admission etc. is considered (that's what I got from it). I applied to BU which is an all-in-one, and I just submitted the CA and then did the supplement like 2 minutes after. I just made sure it was filled out ahead of time.</p>
<p>really?! then what's the difference with colleges who are NOT all in one?</p>
