The Common Application, which has more than 900 members, has just added 50 more.
More than 20 of the new members to Common App are minority-serving institutions. In 2021, Common App launched an initiative to increase member representation of minority-serving institutions. Under this program, MSI membership has grown significantly, with the highest number of MSIs joining between 2021 and 2022. Common App members that are MSIs have seen a nearly 7 percent increase in applications from underrepresented groups in the last eight years.
