Is there a common application or does each individual school require an application? Individual applications usually mean individual submission links. 

Thank you for your reply. Yes, it seems that each school requires an application ?

It's almost always separate links, unless it's a medical school system. I was told that some of those links can be annoying - asking a bunch of redundant multiple choice questions ("How strongly do you recommend this student" "on a scale of 1 to 5, how would you rate this applicant's enthusiasm/dedication/maturity/knowledge, etc. etc." ) or just general web glitches.

It sounds like your recommender is not experienced with these submission systems, so if you could, warn them about these potential issues and ask them to submit things a bit before the deadline. But also let them know explicitly that you as an applicant have no access to that link and do not know whether/which schools will have those annoying questions.

Thank you so much for your help!!! Yeah, I know at least one school is going to have those multiple choice questions....
