<p>Can anyone confirm if the server crashes every year tomorrow? I'm trying to decide whether I should turn in everything tonight or wait until tomorrow. I still have to write essay B so it would be better if I had another day to let it sink in.</p>
<p>I thought scholarships were due the midnight of Dec 1
As in tonight.
As in 6.5 hours from now......</p>
<p>I'm so confused.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.texasscholarships.org/apply/faq_FSA.html#Q9%5B/url%5D">http://www.texasscholarships.org/apply/faq_FSA.html#Q9</a> says</p>
<p>"Q11: How can I update information on my Scholarship application after it has been submitted or after the deadline has passed?
A: All application submissions are final. It is vital that you check your application for accuracy before you submit it. The deadline to submit the Texas Common Application for Scholarships is 11:59 p.m. (CST) on December 1. "</p>
<p>oh okay never mind.
there was another quote that said
midnight of dec 1
which i assumed meant tonight
but i guess they really mean the midnight of dec 2 then</p>
<p>I'm going to submit it today anyways just to be safe.</p>
<p>hey man don't worry, you can submit it tomorrow. i called the UT admissions office three times to confirm with three different people. it's due tomorrow at midnight so just relax and take it easy, i'm at the exact place you are, i have to write essay topic b. good luck bro!</p>
<p>The website starting say "Our system is temporarily off-line for scheduled maintenance. Please try again in 30 minutes." a few minutes ago right when I was about to put in my last essay. Hopefully it comes back on tonight, I really don't feel like waiting until tomorrow.</p>
<p>it's back now -- I saw that, and immediately thought of this post, lol</p>
<p>yeah it's back on; however, my short answer questions have disappeared. I reinputed them from the file I save them in, but when i go back to them from a differnt page they are gone again. I emailed ut right now, and their financial aid number is busy. Hope I can get this resolved by tomorrow</p>
<p>Well it's past midnight and the scholarship apps still up so I guess that's resolved for certain. I'm skipping skewl to finish my essay in the morning to avoid any possible crashes.</p>
<p>When my son had the same problem of the short answer questions disappearing, I called the UT office. They assured me that even though the applicant is unable to see the answers, UT CAN see them. They also said the problem was expected to be corrected today, but I haven't had a chance to check yet.</p>
<p>As for whether the system crashes, I certainly hope not, because I suspect there will be many, many people trying to submit their applications tonight (including my son).</p>
