<p>Has anyone uploaded their graded essay? I'm having trouble with it and their help is not proving to be the best. Does anyone have some helpful hints to how I can upload my essay?</p>
<p>I had the same problem. I called the company and emailed them my essay. THey changed it to a different type of pdf format or something and emailed it back to me. It worked perfectly. Call this #, 410-243-1014. Tell them your problem and they will take care of it. Make sure you state its for gateway to prep schools website</p>
<p>I changed it to PDF. That’s the only way it works for me because the paper had to be scanned that way. Also, a good idea is to email it directly to the admissions of the school.</p>
<p>I emailed them and I was able to contact someone in the technical department who is now helping me upload it. Thanks for the help!</p>
<p>If the essay is two pages and they only allow you to upload one file, what do you do ?</p>
<p>no problem @kittycat1
@endthestarts if you scanned it, you should be able to scan both pages as 1 file</p>
<p>wait, I did scan it but when I try to upload it, its two separate files.</p>
<p>Adobe Reader also offers their version of a “convert to .pdf” online. I forgot where, though…your scanner might have the “.pdf” function as well, like mine does. What scanner do you have, endthestars?</p>
<p>But all fails, call the Gateway Technical Department ;)</p>
<p>Fax the paper to the schools-- this way you know that they have received it. Schools will take faxed copies, even if the rest of your application is on line. Or mail it-- so long as it is postmarked today (1/15) you will be ok–and some schools --PA, BUA for example have a 1/31 deadline.</p>
<p>Although the website seems to have given everyone a tough time somewhere in the application process, go to the help and there is a email address to ask for help by. I asked if they could help me, I then sent my paper and they sent it back to me in a different format. It worked really well. If you’re still having trouble I would recommend emailing their technical staff.</p>
<p>I figured out how to combine the two files, thanks guys !</p>
