So I applied to Temple early action and I sent all my stuff in but it still says they haven’t received my application fee. I applied through the common app and I qualify for a fee waiver so my counselor told me that I can apply to all the colleges on commonapp for free? is this how it works? because on a lot of the portals of other schools i’ve applied to it says i still need to pay for it and I don’t know what to do. Anyone else having this issue? I also sent my sat scores in twice and it says they haven’t received it…i’m stressed. Any help or input would be appreciated.
, if you qualify for a waiver, you should not have to pay the app fees.
you may have to contact each school to work out the logistics or see if your guidance counselor has ideas. do you have phone coverage that covers long distance calls. if not, see if the schools have an 800 number.
have you looked at the common app help pages to see how they suggest you resolve this, Also, get on CC;s pages on the common apps and/or fee waivers. i am sure other applicants have run into same problem over the years and you may learn some good info checking these pages

i would also contact the common app program directly and get advice. i checked cc pages for fee waiver but it was too buried to find anything helfpul. however, above link may help you and link below should allow you to see an option on how to contact the common application folks. the contact us link is on left side of below link.

Thank you! I guess I’ll just contact the school directly, I tried to check the commonapp website before but couldn’t find anything…I’ll contact them too just in case. I’ll also look into the CC pages.
