Including SchooLinks Instructions
CommonApp has 750+ colleges and syncs with SchooLinks, which is how counselors & Registrars send your application documents!
Common Black College App - Create your account!
Common Black College App allows students to apply to one or all of their 65+ partnered HBCUs with a single $20 application fee!
ApplyTX is for Texas public colleges and also syncs with SchooLinks!
Institutional Applications - Applications from the College
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 or ApplyTX. You will have to manually add the application in SchooLinks for counselors to send documents!

track college applications and transcript submission;
submit requests for letters of recommendation;
submit proof of completion of financial aid (graduation requirement);
and submit their senior survey (graduation requirement).
