• 2026 Common App Direct Admissions: Counselor updates and resources

    |

    Common App Direct Admissions simplifies the college admissions process by providing proactive admission offers to qualified students before they apply. Last year, more than 800,000 first-generation, and low- and middle-income students received at least one offer of direct admission from 200+ participating colleges.

    Common App will begin sending direct admission offers for the 2026-2027 application cycle to qualified students in mid-September.

    We invite counselors, advisors, and other student supporters to join us to learn more about the program and how you can connect your students with direct admissions opportunities.

    This webinar will be recorded. All registrants will receive a copy of the recording and slides.
