Forty
years
of
innova8on
The
Common
Applica8on
was
started
in
1975
by
15
forward
thinking
colleges
and
universi8es.
1985
celebrated
100
members
and
universi8es.
In
1995,
the
Common
App
was
available
to
students
on
oppy
disk.
In
1998,
the
Common
App
moved
to
an
online
applica8on
plaVorm.
2015
marks
40
years
of
increasing
access
to
college,
a
refreshed
website
and
the
largest
new
group
of
members.
11
The
Common
Applica8on
was
used
by
more
than
860,000
students
to
apply
to
college
in
2014
2015.
12
The
process
begins
at
commonapp.org
where
applicants
can
create
an
account
and
sign
in
to
the
applica8on.
13
Crea8ng
an
account
is
easy.
Applicants
will
just
need
some
basic
prole
informa8on
like
name,
date
of
birth,
address
and
phone
number.
And
of
course,
a
valid
email
address.
That
email
address
will
become
the
applicants
username
and
the
Common
Apps
primary
method
of
sending
updates
and
reminders,
so
it
should
be
an
address
that
is
used
on
a
regular
basis.
Its
also
a
good
idea
to
make
note
of
your
password
and
keep
that
reminder
handy,
since
youll
need
to
log
in
each
8me
you
access
the
Common
App.
If
you
lose
your
login
informa8on,
the
Common
Applica8on
Applicant
Solu8ons
Center
is
always
here
to
help,
but
its
s8ll
a
good
idea
to
keep
your
password
someplace
safe
so
you
can
locate
it
later
on
if
necessary.
14
Students
should
use
their
legal
name
as
it
appears
on
ocial
school
documents
and
standardized
test
scores.
This

allow
colleges
to
match
documents
with
the

in
June
of

their

has
instructed
them
otherwise.

indica8ng
