I am currently enrolled at a community college and planning to expand my education further in sales/marketing at a university.

I realize it gets expensive if you apply for 8 places, but perhaps it serves a purpose as well in bringing in serious applicants only [where allowed by state law etc]I would love for there to be a universal repository trusted by all across the board so applicants would only have to pay once every 30 days or something [and of course I would want that to be us, heh], but I think for all sorts of reasons in a competitive marketplace that's not going to happen.
