Score is like a digital filing cabinet where you can communicate with me, your counselors, teachers, and parents. The Common Application is where you will submit your actual application to the colleges, including your essay and personal information. I will also explain how to request transcripts, letters of recommendation, and navigate the application process. It is highly recommended to aim for the early action deadline for a less competitive application and potentially more financial aid.</description></oembed>
