My application says it completed 12/27. I also received an email in 12/27 saying that my application was complete and had been received. It's the status page that is telling me I missed "department required questions."
Thanks everyone for the pep talk. I really appreciate it. I was having a rather unpleasant evening. So much goes into these individual applications-- it's pretty devastating to find an error.
I've been a lurker on gradcafe for a long time. I wish I joined in on the fun earlier!
@a_sort_of_fractious_angelThanks so much for answering. I really appreciate it. It's probably too late now-- they likely trashed my application automatically. Shut out last cycle, not off to a great start this cycle. I checked that application twice for errors after completing it, and read it out loud a third time. It's inconceivable that this could have happened. Bad luck, I guess.
Hey-- did anyone have a weird error on the Penn State app? I signed in randomly, and it's saying that my application is complete. However, it also states under "status" that didn't answer three required questions about their joint programs. I don't understand how that could have happened... I know I answered those three questions.
