Should I check this box?!

Applying to College

<p>"If you have attended any other secondary schools since ninth grade, including summer schools or enrichment programs hosted on a secondary school campus, check this box:"</p>

<p>So I filled out the information for my high school, and then it asks me about attending "any other secondary schools since ninth grade".</p>

<p>I attended School A in 9th grade, but moved to a different city and attended School B for 10-12th grade. In the question it says SINCE ninth grade. I don't know if I should fill in the info for School A. The language is ambiguous imo.</p>

<p>Also, there's another question that asks me to explain changing secondary schools. I feel like it's repetitive. Could someone help me understand? I'm submitting my apps tonight and this part of the common app is the only thing I have left!</p>

<p>Any thoughts??</p>

<p>When they say “since” they mean including 9th grade. Colleges only care about things that happened after 8th grade. So yes, you have attended another secondary school since 9th grade.</p>

<p>One question asks about attending other schools, the other about changing schools. Two different things. If you attended another school for summer school, or a summer enrichment program, you didn’t change schools. There are many repetitive areas on the common app. Just answer the questions the best you can.</p>
