Need help with applications for graduate school.

psychotropic · Nov 14, 2009, 09:10 PM

I am applying for graduate school and the majority of the schools provide you with a pdf application. I would like to type right onto the applications rather than having to complete 13-15 applications by hand. Does anyone know of a program or a way to accomplish this?

I appreciate the help in advance.

Thank you for the quick reply. I am checking out the free trial right now. Does anyone know of a free program?

There are several that you can try out... Acrobat Pro is really the best option, if you can use it at a school or work or something, but...

See these other threads here on this topic:

Some people have also recommended using OpenOffice for this...

And then if you have Windows on your Mac also, there are several options on the Windows side that are passable at least.
