Today's the day!!! Many colleges and universities have opened their applications including the Common App.  Get your account started today. You can complete the "easy" information in one session.  You'll feel great because you've "started" the application process without having to tax your summertime brain.

Then you can take the rest of the month to write, rewrite and then proof your essay. You'll begin your senior year ahead of the curve and ready to answer the question you'll be asked by every adult you encounter senior year - "What colleges are you applying to?" You'll be able to answer, X University and Z College and I've already submitted my applications."  Interrogation over!

 Get started here.
