When is the right time to create a Common App account and download Inline?

Anytime after January 1 of your Junior year is a good time to create your Common App account and download Inline. Your license is good for two admissions cycles, so you can use the time between January 1 and August 1 (when the Common App officially “opens” for the admissions year) before your Senior year to get a head start on the process.
