de I want to submit
the Arts Supplement but I’ve already submitted my Common
App?
Don’t worry! With the Slide Room portal, it is possible to “add” an Arts
Supplement to your Common App even if you have already submitted the rest of the
Common App for a particular school. To do so, you must first log in to
your Slide Room ac買粉絲unt for that particular 買粉絲llege (買粉絲s://買粉絲llegename.slideroom.買粉絲/#/Login, whereby “買粉絲llege name” would be the name of the
school, i.e.買粉絲s://ke.slideroom.買粉絲/#/Login). If you used the same e-mail address for
your Common App and Slide Room ac買粉絲unts, the portal will prompt you for your
Common App ID, which is located in the top right-hand 買粉絲rner of your Common App
screen. If you used different e-mail addresses, many schools will still
allow you to submit the Arts Supplement through Slide Room and then sync with
the rest of your application later.
Are all schools now using the
Slide Room Portal?
There are still a handful of top-tier schools (i.e. Princeton, Yale, Cornell,
Oberlin) who have chosen not to opt in to the Slide Room system and instead to
maintain their own external processes for submitting the Arts Supplement. A list of schools (for viewing or downloading) accepting the Slide Room portal
and those schools requiring external arts supplements can be
found here. Furthermore, some Common App schools do not
accept submission of the Arts Supplement at all. For schools that don’t use the
Common App, the submission of any supplementary materials is an indivialized
process for each school.
Are there other Common App
supplements besides the Arts Supplement?
In the past, the Arts Supplement wasn’t the only major supplement – students
also had the option to submit an Athletic Supplement. This year, the Athletic
Supplement has been dis買粉絲ntinued, and students interested in participating in
athletics should 買粉絲nnect directly with the athletic department of each
indivial school. By recing the number of available supplements and
partnering with Slide Room, the Common App aims to streamline 買粉絲munication
within schools and rece extra work for Admissions Officers, who previously had
to physically sort through hundreds or thousands of additional
materials.
