When this error occurs, it is usually one of two possibilities. One is that an application was already previously sent for the desired term. If so, the application system will not allow you to reapply to the same term. The second option is that term is not currently available for enrollment and you will need to contact the college admissions office.

If the major that you're trying to select is not showing up, the college you chose may not offer it. If you believe the college does offer this major and you are not seeing it, you will need to contact the college admissions office for further assistance.

Not all colleges automatically send out email confirmations for submitted applications. If it's been a few business days and you still have not received an email confirmation, get in contact with admissions for further assistance.

Once an application has been submitted, changes cannot be made online. A request to change your application will have to go through the admissions office of the college to which you have applied. If you have applied to more than one college, you will need to get in contact with each college.

If you would like to withdraw your application, you will need to contact the admissions office to assist you.

The red text at the top of the screen indicates that there were errors or omissions on that screen of your application. If you don't have all the information for that screen on hand or otherwise cannot complete the screen, you can skip to another page by clicking one of the screens listed in the menu. Data on the current screen will not be saved and will have to be reentered when you return to it.

A check mark on the menu indicates that a screen has been saved. If you have skipped a screen where newer information has triggered the red arrow(s), the new information will not be saved until you return and complete the screen.

If the screen error message indicates that an answer to a question was entered incorrectly, check your answer carefully. If the screen still presents a problem, please contact us through the Talk to Us page.

The online application was not designed with printing the display format in mind. If you intend to print your completed online application, the only way to do this at the present time is to use your browser's print command from each (saved and completed) screen of the application:

File -> Print

If the screen prints but the information you entered appears blank, we suggest accessing the application with a different Web browser program.

If you intend to print blank screens of the online application in order to fill it out by hand and mail it in, please contact the college admissions office for instructions.

Yes, except when you skip to another screen. You may save by clicking Save or by clicking on the Save and Go Back and Save and Continue buttons. If you click on the large screen numbers displayed in the menu, you can skip (or bypass) screens you want to complete at a later time. This will move you to another screen without saving or checking for errors on the current screen.

All buttons that bypass the save function will warn you before proceeding, so pay attention to warning boxes. More information about navigating and saving is provided in the introduction to the online application.

For state fields, select Foreign Country. You can select your country from the country list. Provide mailing code information in the international postal code entry. If you need to leave an additional mailing code, add it within the city field. For telephone number fields (home, work, cell), most applications are formatted for U.S. and Canadian numbers only. If your telephone number format does not fit in the entry or causes an error message, please leave that telephone number entry blank. Use International telephone to enter your international phone number.

Some university applications will require a CEEB code entry for any high school or college previously attended. A CEEB code identifies U.S. high schools and colleges. If you went to school in the U.S., the CEEB code should automatically be indicated once you identify your school from the Find list. If your school and/or CEEB code are not listed, you can get the information by calling your school administration or academic counseling office. If you are an international student, please enter zeroes in the CEEB code entry boxes.
