<p>I'm asking this on behalf of a friend who's applying (-ed) to Stanford. She previewed it before she submitted it, but when she tries to view it now, the essay doesn't show. She can access the app again, and view the document uploaded, but the page it blank. Could she have uploaded a blank document?</p>
<p>And if she did submit a blank essay, is there anything she can do?</p>
<p>i would send an email to the admissions office explaining everything and attaching the essay just in case. email is <a href="mailto:admission@stanford.edu">admission@stanford.edu</a></p>
<p>and i guess you could mail a letter with the essay inside too. they are closed during the break but you can still try.</p>
<p>Yeah, thanks, that's what I suggested, but I don't think the unsettling feeling will go away untli it's all resolved. She did have some problems with pdf documents, perhaps, hopefully it's just a personal glitch and the admissions office has her material.</p>
