Please note, The Common Application cannot be selected as a payment recipient from Flywire website because all payments to The Common Application must be initiated directly through your account on their website.

Even if the institution you are applying to is listed in our drop-down menu as a payment recipient, your Common Application payment process needs to start from your Common Application account in order for it to be applied to your submitted application.
