very quick and stupid question

<p>Common app main essay.</p>

<p>Does it need to be double spaced? What font should I use?</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>If you want to be safe, double spaced 12 point Times New Roman always works. But I don’t think it really matters. I mean, I used Comic Sans, and it didn’t affect my results.</p>

<p>So does it need to be double spaced?.. I’d rather not cuz it goes over a page when its double spaced…Should I? :(:(</p>

<p>NO…use single spaced. Double spaced is prohibited in most of the college supplements, and hence you should also avoid in the common app.</p>

<p>thanks man…</p>

<p>Do not double space!!! Some schools REQUIRE that the essays NOT be double-spaced. Bear that in mind and be on the safe side.</p>

<p>thank u!!!</p>
