<p>I am filling out this</a> form right now but I can't understand a question: "Do you need an application?"
Can you explain what it means?</p>
<p>Just select no, you’ve already applied to MIT. I believe that option is for people who fill out the recruiting form before they do the MIT application.</p>
<p>Doesn’t “application” mean a computer software instead of an application to somewhere? Maybe I was the only one who misunderstood this word…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yes.</p>
<p>It asks that because MIT does not use the Common Application.</p>
<p>Therefore it is asking if one needs to download MIT’s own application form.</p>
<p>One applies to MIT through its MyMIT portal:</p>

<p>Google is your friend.</p>
