The Common Application and Docufide Partner to Make Applying to College Easier for Students and Their Counselors

The Common Application keeps getting easier to use, and more and more features are streamlining the process of transferring documents from schools to colleges and universities.
An announcement came out the other day that Docufide will work with the Common Application to transfer transcripts directly from high schools to colleges.
This is a boon for students–and their counselors. Yay.

Six More Colleges Join the Universal College Application

I learned today that the Universal College Application now has over 60 institutions that accept its online application. This is a good start, and builds upon momentum that I wrote about a while back. I’m glad that the Common Application’s monopoly on online submissions may be ending. And further developments from CollegeZapps may render both organizations obsolete before too long.
Here are the newest members of the Universal College Application:

  • Arcadia University
  • Gonzaga University
  • Harcum College – 2 year institution
  • Hobart and William Smith Colleges
  • University of Miami (FL)
  • University of Pennsylvania
