Leda Scholars Application: 2016-2017

You guys! I’m panicking because it won’t let me save or submit the application even though I am finished. It gives me the error “connection - REQUESTLIMITEXCEEDED: TotalRequests Limit exceeded.” I emailed them but what if I lose all my work. Ugh

You’re not alone ! @HelloThereHola

When I clicked submit, it just keeps loading and doesn’t do anything. Am I doing something wrong. PLEASE help.

Did you click submit on the first page? Right before the confirmation page ? @CIRCUITDEBATER

@LeonTinoco I made it to the last page but I keep getting the error message that everyone else keeps mentioning. What should I do?? Should I email the Application to Iris or something?

@HelloThereHola @LeonTinoco
What should I do? Should I just send them an email with my application attached as as PDF??

@Hamlon @aspiringgirl
When y’all submitted your applications, did it ignore the paragraph separation and combine all of the paragraphs as if it was 1 big paragraph?

Yes @CIRCUITDEBATER

@CIRCUITDEBATER It did ignore the paragraph separation, but I don’t think my app submitted. I keep getting the error message.

Were any of you able to submit the app today?

“Thank you. Your response has been processed successfully.”

Nevermind. It went through!!!

@aspiringgirl It is still not working for me. ;(

@Ayotaytayy for the writing sample, I just used an online PDF file joiner then uploaded it all together once I combined them. My picture also disappeared too but it still shows that I have the file uploaded so I’m guessing you will be alright.

I won’t know if it’ll submit until I get home

All of you having problems should email irisearly@ledascholars.org or phillipscotton@ledascholars.org if it won’t submit or is having malfunctions

Woohoo! I just got home and submitted and it went through! Praise the lord.

I have a question… if anyone has submitted their application, does it still say “Upload Writing Sample” where you should have submitted the analytical essay? I attached it but it said that after it was submitted. I would think it would say the name of the file I uploaded.

@HelloThereHola

When I clicked submit, it gave me the option to review my app before the final submission. I saw that my picture file wasn’t there, so I clicked edit application or what ever it said at the bottom of the form, and clicked add different file. I added the file that was originally there and clicked submit. It showed the file name the second time.

It worked! Best of luck to everyone! Let’s try to keep this Forum hype even though results for people who advance to Stage 2 don’t come out for almost 2 months!

hopefully we get in
