<p>haha. this thread is funny.
oso130, you can sign up for the common app now, even if you are a junior. just go to their website (commonapp.org) and follow the instructions.
Also note that the supplement <em>may</em> be different next year. So if you decide to write them now, be warned that they may not be usable.</p>

<p>the money you have to pay is in sending the actual app to stanford AFTER you’ve filled everything out. it’s free to just look at the app.</p>
