We've been having an issue this year with students filling out the application, paying their application fee, and then closing their browser window before actually submitting the application. Don't let this happen to you! After you pay the fee, you need to keep clicking forward to digitally "sign" your application and submit it. Until you click "Submit Application" and that confirmation email is in your sweaty, anxious digital hands, your application has not been submitted. You will also know if you have submitted your application because the next time you log in, the application homepage should look completely different.
About 170 students did this early action, and luckily we caught them in time to let them submit their application. However, 60 students have already done this for regular notification. Be aware!
Credentials Checking
Also, credentials checking will open tonight at midnight. That might sound like a good thing, but we in admissions know that it will probably cause a run on the bank, and everyone will call and re-send their documents, neither of which you should do. Do not call us, and do not resend your documents at this time. Just continue to bite your fingernails until you receive an email telling you to resend things. In the meantime, allow us to search through the office couch cushions in search of your English teacher's recommendation...
