HELP!!! TECHNICAL PROBLEMS APPLYING TO SCHOLAR COMMUNITY FOR CMC!!!

Hi everyone, I am currently trying to submit my application for the scholar community but the form is not giving me the option to type when it asks for me to fill out my name and email address. I am freaking out right now and would appreciate any advice from anyone on how to approach this problem because it says that I need to have the application done by December 7th.

Is this problem just me or is it the website? Please someone let me know or I will be spending the rest of my night drowning in anxiety LOL

Yeah, I had the same problem. What I did was use inspect element to change the input fields for name, email, etc., as they all had the attribute “readonly”— delete that for all the fields, enter your data, and submit. It worked for me.

How did you use “inspect element”?

Hi bobsmithpi314, I was wondering if you could show me exactly how you located “name, email, etc” in the huge list of coding?

@littlexpeony if you’re using Google Chrome & press inspect element, there’s a little cursor button in the dev window that allows you to select each element. Or, if you right-click directly on each of the input fields and press inspect element, it’ll pull the element up in the dev console. If you want me to post pictures of how to do this, let me know.

are you applying ED? Where are you from?

@oceantriumph I’m from Anaheim California! I am not applying ED but I did submit my app in time for the merit scholarship deadline :slight_smile:

@bobsmithpi314 I actually called the admissions office and they told me that this was an issue for numerous applicants and they went ahead and removed the requirements! Thank you so much for your input and offer though :smiley:
