Application website (Check spam filters on your computer settings to allow the university to email you back. Be sure to turn off your “pop-up” blockers. The username is up to 20 letters or numbers. You will get an immediate email after submitting #1 on your application which will have your username. You should save this. If you lose or forget your username you will have to start all over. Be sure to use navigation buttons, not the browser buttons. The system “times out” after 40 minutes of non-activity (as determined by using the browser buttons) and it doesn’t save. Therefore, be sure to do your personal statement on a word processor and cut and paste to your application. You must do Step 1 first. Then you can skip around.
