Can two people apply using the same email address?

No. Each individual should have their own email address. If someone tries to apply using an email address that has already been used on an application, it will appear as if the first person applied. If you do not have an email address, you can get one at no cost through many different websites (i.e. Gmail, Yahoo, etc.).
