"Invalid Characters Entered"

<p>On the CUNY app, I paste my essays and click “save and continue.” Whenever I do that, a popup comes: “Invalid Characters Entered. Valid Characters Are…”</p>

<p>I don’t understand why this popup is coming up. I scanned both my essays, and they both contain all the valid characters. What should I do now?</p>

<p>Paste the text into notepad or other basic text editor. Then scan over it to make sure about weird characters. Then paste it into the CUNY app.</p>

<p>OK I’ll try that.</p>

<p>For future, people who are having trouble. remove the tabs on documents.</p>
