Questions concerning paying for application fees for college (Common App)

[iskim86]

hi I'm applying to 7 colleges via the common app. Dartmouth is the only college that appears under "Colleges Accepting Credit Card Payment Online". do I have to pay for other colleges too? if so, how? it doesn't say anything about it in the Common App website.

another question: in what order do I have to send things in to a college? the apps or the transcripts or SAT test scores first? or can I even pay first?

one more: how do I submit my SAT scores?! the common app has a field I can fill out my scores but it's not required! and on any other apps, I find no way to fill out my SAT scores!


thanks!

apply for a fee waiver, you get extra brownie points for that

you'll probably have to mail them a check or something, is my guess.

i don't think it matters what order

you can call the sat people (college board or something?) and have them mail scores to schools. it costs some money for each mailing....

Makes no difference what order your materials arrive. They just file each one until your application is complete, then they review it.
Also, test scores and transcripts are sent directly from the source, then attached to your application file. You do not specify it in your application form itself because you could easily lie about it.
