Application Instructions

1. Establish your account.
   • Enter your account information exactly as instructed on the form.
   • Click the 'Create My Account' button
   • Write down your user name and password for future reference when re-entering the system.
   
   
2. Fill out your application.
   You can complete your application in any order and save your work and come back to it later - even from a different computer!
   • Use the "Go Back" and "Next Page" buttons to navigate through your application.
   • To save what you've done so far without exiting, click the "Save This Page" button.
   • To save what you've done so far and exit (you'll be taken to your Activity Log), click the "Exit Session" button.
   • To reaccess your application to continue work on it, return to the application menu, select the application, and enter your user name and password when prompted.
   
   All of your saves and transmissions are logged in your Activity Log for your review.
   
   
3. Make corrections to your data.
   You may see a Data Correction Page when you move from page to page or click 'Save/Pay/Send'.
   A Data Correction Page appears if you have omitted a required field or entered data incorrectly. Changes you need to make appear in red text. Simply enter the correct data, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click the 'Make the corrections' button.
   
   
4. Save/Pay/Send your application.
   Check your application carefully. When you are satisfied with it and are ready to send it to the school, click 'Save/Pay/Send' at the bottom of the last page. This saves your data in its final form and takes you to the payment page where you pay your application fee online.
   
   Your application is not sent to the school until you pay your application fee and it is authorized (step 5).
   
   
5. Pay your application fee online.
   On the payment page, you can pay your application fee by debit/credit card.
   
   Paying by debit or credit card:
   • Fill in all information, including the complete credit card number, expiration date, and card billing information.
   • Click the 'Submit this information' button.
   
   
   Once payment is authorized, your application is on its way to the school, and you can no longer make changes to it.
   
   Security Information: Your debit/credit card information is encrypted during transmission from your browser to our server and during payment authorization. None of your debit/credit card information is stored in our database.
   
   
6. Check your Activity Log to print a copy of your application or to find out if the school has received it.
   
   
7. Close your browser program when you're ready to end your Web session.
   This clears your password and secure connection.

Hints For Filling Out Your Application

• Separate digits in telephone numbers with dashes only, no slashes or parentheses.
• Check your application over carefully before sending it!
• There are usually other requirements for admission such as having transcripts, test scores, and/or letters of recommendation sent to the school. Be sure to fulfill these requirements in addition to submitting your application.

Web Application Features

• The web application server stores the information you enter under the private user name and password you establish.
• Nothing you enter on an application form is sent to the institution until you transmit it. That means you can set up your account, fill out information on an application form, change it, and save it free of charge and without worry of disclosing information to the institution before you're ready.
• You don't have to complete an application in one sitting. For example, you can start working on an application at your library's web terminal, save your work, recall it from your web terminal at home, and continue working from there. Wherever you have access to the Web, you have access to the information you've saved.
• When you fill out more than one application form, common information you filled in on the first form is automatically entered in all subsequent forms. For example, if you've entered your name and address on an application form and saved it, that information will be automatically entered on the next online form you access (assuming, of course, that the next form also has name and address fields). Also, if you change the information on one form, it's changed on all others.
• Your data is transmitted securely over the Internet. The information you enter is encrypted and secure when you save it and when you send it. Although general data collected on the system may be used in statistical studies and reports designed to assist institutions with planning, any information bearing your personal identification is only disclosed to the department you send it to.
• When you save or transmit application information a note appears in your Activity Log. You can easily check your Activity Log at any time to see your application activity and to find out when the school has acknowledged receipt of your application.
