<p>Around when did the common app supplement come online last year? And, what was on it? Are the major/certificate checklist with optional engineering essay, the "what's your favorite book" questions, and "what did you do the past two summers" questions on them? I really liked those on last year's paper app, so if they're not on the common, I'd still want to do paper app apart from the common I'll be doing anyway.</p>
<p>Those questions were part of the Common App supplement.</p>
<p>From my experience last year (I don't know if it will be the same this year), but it seemed as though filling out the Common App for Princeton, rather than official the Princeton app, required you to write 1 extra short essay. After discovering this, I decided to slack off on that last essay and submitted a poem instead. It worked. :D</p>
<p>Are the common app supplements out yet? At the commonapp.org place, it said princeton's updating stuff... is that right?</p>
<p>The princeton supp is up on their website but it is not yet on the common app website. I already did the common app so I didn't feel like redoing it on the princeton site. I called the admissions office and they said the supp should be up on the common app website in the next week.</p>
