Regular college entrance application? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

uniform

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'regular' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'college entrance application?' is the wordplay.
'college' becomes 'uni' (short for university).
'entrance application?' becomes 'form' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'uni'+'form'='UNIFORM'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for uniform that I've seen before include "Unvarying kind of costume" , "Official attire" , "Tunic; even" , "Official wear; unvarying" , "Regular - distinctive garb" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
