<p>Hi everyone. So after weeks of putting together my application and perfecting my essays, I went on common app last night to apply to Penn. But the website was extremely slow and whenever I clicked the "Preview and Submit- Common App" tab, I would get a page saying "Error". What should I do? Is it possible for me to still submit my application somehow?</p>

<p>All Jan 1 common app deadlines have been extended to at least the end of the day Jan 2. It’s not too late.</p>

<p>I’d also contact the Admissions Office as soon as possible and explain what happened (and submit your application as soon as possible, if you haven’t already done so). It’s probably not necessary if this was a widespread problem (which it apparently was), but it couldn’t hurt. :)</p>

<p>You can’t really do much else.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
