You'll be asked to choose the round for which you will "apply."

This step is not part of the actual student application experience, but simply required for the purposes of testing.

From here, you can go through the 5 sections that comprise Part 1 of the application to confirm your configuration appears how you intended:

  • Personal
  • Family
  • Education
  • Essay & More
  • Review & Submit

If you need to exit the test application, simply click the X in the upper right corner. You'll be returned to the Configure page. The fields you've added to your test application will save, so you can pick up where you left off.

Initiating Your Test Application

When you initiate Part 1 of the application, here's what you'll see:

Resetting Your Test Application

Once you've initiated your test application, you can reset a previously initiated application by navigating to the Review & Submit section, where you'll find a Reset Initiated Application button.

You can choose whether or not you'd like your application data to be reset, or preserved.

  • If you choose to preserve your application data, you can initiate another application, without reentering applicant data.
  • If you choose to clear your application data, you'll start again with a clean slate.

On the Review & Submit page, you can choose a different application round, in case you want to test the different experiences between First Year and Transfer applicants, should you support both in your configuration.

Click the pencil icon on the right of Application Deadline to edit your application round.

Then, select the round from the dropdown.
