FAQ: Can Colleges I Apply to See the Other Colleges on My Common Application?

Marla Platt • November 27, 2020

The Common Application colleges do not share your application info with other

Applying to college via the Common Application? Wondering if a college can see the list of other colleges on your My Colleges list?

Nope! A school cannot view any other schools on the My Colleges list or receive any information applicants input related to those schools. When submitting the Common Application, the applicant submits school-by-school.  Applicants are permitted to change inputs, if desired, each time they submit to one of their Common App colleges.
