Application part of site isn't loading

<p>So I finished my application a while ago but my 2nd teacher hasn't started my recommendation yet. I reminded him a Friday. And I just reminded him again today. Now it says it is due by Sept 30th 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Like in 4 hours. I need to see if he finished it yet so I can submit my application but I can't load the app page.</p>

<p>Any help</p>

<p>EDIT: it's working now but it is quite slow
It's not working again</p>

<p>It says that he hasn't started it yet. ugh</p>

<p>urghhhh I can’t get to my application, there’s too much traffic…
-____-</p>

<p>So close to the essay section…one step at a time.</p>

<p>"Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.</p>

<p>Error Details:</p>

<p>[db<em>error: message=“DB Error: connect failed” code=-24 mode=callback callback=CRM</em>Core_Error::handle prefix=“” info=" [nativecode=Too many connections]"] "</p>

<p>Is anyone getting this message?
OMGSH I can’t even get to my app. I’m going to kill someone.</p>

<p>I’m getting the same message. I have no idea what to do now…I just need to copy paste my essays and submit…</p>

<p>Deadline is 11:59 PM Pacific time…</p>

<p>You can submit an extension request at <a href=“https://p2.secure.hostingprod.com/@questbridge.org/ncm/extensions/ssl/index.php[/url]”>https://p2.secure.hostingprod.com/@questbridge.org/ncm/extensions/ssl/index.php&lt;/a&gt; if all else fails.</p>

<p>Oh mg the same thing happened to me except i wason the inal pageof th applicationwhen it hhappened to me i emailed them and they haven’t emailed me back i’m freaking out right noe :/</p>

<p>I am panicking! I have been trying to access my application for an hour and a half and it isn’t working! I still need to copy and paste my essays into the application and type in the exact amounts for my family income, which I wasn’t sure of before.</p>

<p>What can I do? Are a lot of people also having this problem? How do I calm down a little? Does QuestBridge normally grant an application extension for these kind of technical problems, or is that only for really emergency situations?</p>

<p>I’m freaking out too. All I have left is to copy and paste the last essay and submit. But no. Like five million people are logged on at the same time. If it doesn’t work soon, I’m going to cry.</p>

<p>Is there anyway to figure out your QB ID without having to get to the My Locker page?</p>

<p>I need it for the Extension Request form.</p>

<p>i haven’t got emails from questBridge. How do we know if we got extension or not? It’s due pretty soon!</p>

<p>You can still submit a request without your QB #. that’s what I did. I explained in my request that I couldn’t even go to my locker page to retrieve my # in the first place…</p>

<p>hopefully they extend the deadline. this is ridiculous.</p>

<p>Yep, haven’t even experienced this lag on woot.com before, maybe they should get better servers when they can. It was working just a couple hours ago too. Good luck everyone, thanks for telling me about the extension, I thought I was screwed just when I finished my last essay haha</p>

<p>Yeah I’m thinkin about asking for an extension. I’m just wondering if I should wait closer til 2:59 (I’m on eastern time)? or if I asked for it now and went to bed if that would look bad cuz I didn’t wait? cuz I got school tomorrow, like I’m sure everyone else here does, and I want to go to bed soon.</p>

<p>A pessimist would worry that the extension form might get overloaded just before the deadline and crash, too. Feeling optimistic?</p>

<p>If you happen to have a hard copy of the fax cover sheets, you should be able to find your QB ID number there. My son had saved his ID from the College Prep program in his email and noticed that the same numbers appeared on the fax cover sheets. </p>

<p>On his “Transcript and Test Scores” cover sheet the following appear: 1AxxxxxxAxxxxxx
The x’s are his ID number. The same number is listed twice on that sheet.</p>

<p>@Lorem:
I guess I’m a pessimist, haha. I told my friends to submit an extension immediately as well. Um, but I’d rather call myself a realist.</p>

<p>Er. It’s only 8:30 Pacific Time, but it says the application is closed. What the f—? I need to check if my second teacher finished his rec! And I think he thought it was due 11:59…</p>

<p>like every college deadline, things just get slow. I’m sure the Common App site is the same at the end of december and in january. Be patient, and when all else fails, put in that extension request.</p>

<p>@sinflower:
Maybe they’re trying to reduce the lag by closing the application. They might just extend the deadline and reopen it later, I wouldn’t panic too much.</p>

<p>Oh, and how the heck did you get in? It is super-laggy or what?</p>
