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

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.
