Ok, so I’m freaking out over here. Can IMSA applications be submitted prematurely? But the thing is that mine was perfect, but when I logged in to pay the fee, my parental statement was gone, and it said that my application was already submitted. Basically the website deleted my parental statement, and submitted my essay without any confirmation. I pressed the submit button prior to paying the fee, as it sends you a link after the submission. But when I logged in to access the link, my application said 99% done, and my parental statement was gone. So now I don’t know what to do. Is IMSA open on Sundays? We’re gonna go to the school and sort this all out and hopefully it’ll be ok
Ok so I was at a friends house and he was having the same problem. It wasn’t saving properly. And also the load time was horrible. So we decided to wake up at 230 am and submit the application. We were able to but when it submitted it was 92% done. We don’t know what we forgot but we’re both scared it was the essays. I don’t believe IMSA is open on Sunday. IMSA admissions office Is open Monday 8 am to 430 pm. @isolatedmind. Good luck! I heard IMSA admissions website might crash.
@tabbychiro
Are you applying or just helping out the chat? Just wonderin…
I got the same problem but mine won’t submit!! I am freaking out right now. Do you know if we can submit a paper application? My parents can drive Monday and just give them a paper app because I am done but the website just crashed.
The website does not load for me too… Was planning to upload essays today. It should not crash just because over 2000 people accessing it at the same time… :-S
They said they won’t consider anything after Feb. 1… No exceptions… I’m doomed.
well, obviously IMSA has not a very large bandwidth available to the server to handle all the requests… Probably the only way for them to fix it is to extend submission deadline for 3 more days
… or it is a cyber attack (by overflooding the bandwidth) done by someone who already submitted the application to prevent others from submitting to decrease the competition. @YoloSwagMaster did you do this? :-w (trying to joke over here)
What if this problem persists until Monday? There will be soooo much applications going in Monday that I doubt my app would even submit.
Well, If the problem due to a bandwidth limitations, it will not get fixed by itself. They should have some tech people to take care of the server during submission time. I assume it will be at least 400-500 more applications submitted tomorrow… We all have to write emails to admission officers about problem we are having already since January 30.
im having the same problem I cant even access it now ~X(
ah, finally I received the error report from the server:
Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at imsa.admittor.com Port 443
I got the same…I hope they fix this soon :-SS
I doubt that they will extend the deadline.
I will freak if they don’t especially since this is my last chance
I just sent an email to two admission officers I know, hope everyone did the same. admissions@imsa.edu
wheew just entered mine
Now its showing that only 80% of the application was done :-SS
I am saving things first, logging out and then logging in to see if new information is updated. I will not push submit button until I am sure all info is updated and saved.
@javascript. I did it it >:)
I’m joking of course.
