"Week 3" Technology blog post

I learned last night that for high school seniors applying to college, there is an online standard application form that some colleges elect to use. The prospective student may fill it out once and submit it FREE to any schools that elect to use it. For students, what a time/sanity-saver. For parents, what a cost-saver. I think this development is also somewhat indicative of attitudes the schools themselves have about their student bodies and their image.
