If you feel more comfortable with the online application, apply that way. But you should check with the colleges that you will be applying to, to see if they have a specific application form they want you to fill out. Some colleges require students to fill out the common app and other colleges require students to fill out an application form specifically for their school.

Applying online is a faster way. However, if you give your application in person, you will be assured that you gave the relevant and all the documents. But, if you apply online and you forget to submit any document, they will mail to you about the same.

It all depends upon where you are applying. Obviously, you won’t go to submit your application to a college which is a 200 miles away. So, I think you should trust your counsellor, your peers who have experience in this matter and your family.

Best of luck!!

You don’t apply in person. You can have an interview, which many colleges say cannot hurt you. The interview process however is very influencial both ways.

Applying online with the school’s individual supplement is the best way to go, just to show that school it is being singled out as your choice (even if you do this for multiple schools)

Applying online is ok, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Do it in person, it just seems more of the right thing to do….eye to eye…etc…..
