Applying

Pick what application system you will be using! 

1. CommonApp - Create your account! 

•  CommonApp syncs better with SchooLinks, which is what we use to send documents! 

• 25 - 26 CommonApp Essay Prompts! 

2. ApplyTX - Create your account!

• ApplyTX only has Texas schools and it does not sync well with SchooLinks. You need to make sure your SchooLinks, under college applications, reflects where you are applying to!

• Essay Prompts

  • Topic A: Tell us your story. What unique opportunities or challenges have you experienced throughout your high school career that have shaped who you are today?

  • Topic B: Most students have an identity, an interest, or a talent that defines them in an essential way. Tell us about yourself.

  • Topic C: You've got a ticket in your hand. Where will you go? What will you do? What will happen when you get there?

3. There are some schools, like UCLA system, who have institutional applications where you will have to apply on their website as they do not have an application on CommonApp and/or ApplyTX. You will have to manually add the application into SchooLinks for us to send documents!
