[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree, 30 colleges is a heck of a lot....how does one student even craft quality applications to 30 schools, without 'help'? And for all of them to turn him down, that screams 'problem applicant'[/quote] It's called the Common Application :roll: [/quote] But most of the top ranked schools require essays beyond the common app essay, mostly unique to each school. You can't just press a button and apply to 30 top schools with just the common app essay. It's a lot of work to make sure you're putting together the correct requirements for each school and meeting deadlines for even the now standard 10-15 schools, I can only imagine doubling or tripling that amount of work. And then the expense... $60-75 per app plus charges for sending test scores and transcripts. Whew, a lot to keep track of! [/quote] That's not always so. In fact, the only school my daughter had to write a separate essay for was her safety.[/quote]
