<p>My s is trying to print hard copies of admissions applications but some schools like UTexas at Austin, or James Madison don't seem to allow him to. The best he has been able to get is 1 or 2 pages of the current section.</p>
<p>He was hoping to fill in the blanks before typing everything in so he doesn't make any mistakes.</p>
<p>I told him I would ask on cc because if the folks here don't know, it can't be done.</p>
<p>What my son did was to fill out the online application completely, and save it. Then I looked over it to make sure it was complete and without mistakes, before he submitted it. On some apps, you can print the whole thing at the very end after you've submitted it. Others you'll need to print page by page before submitting it. Depends on the school, and I'm sorry but I'm not familiar with those schools' applications. I'm sure someone else knows for sure.</p>
<p>What my kids did was work on the application, save it, but don't send it. Have someone look it over, check and double check all facts and figures. As far as the essay is concerned, write it in a word document and copy/paste it into the application. Be sure to check it and make sure it copied OK and didn't do any screwy things to the characters/punctuation marks (which it will do sometimes- but you can go back in a change things). Also, the paragraph indents don't always copy over; just fix it up on the application.</p>
<p>Check and double check. Then after you have checked it for the nth time, hit the ignition button and send it off into cyberspace!</p>
<p>You can also make a printout of each web page. Some of the stuff will get truncated (the stuff in the boxes) but at least you have something. The parts that get truncated, you can copy into the same word document you wrote your essay into. Then you always have a copy of everything you put on that application.</p>
<p>The online application is a great way to go. You can get instant feedback that it was received. You'll get updates as to where your app is in the process; what has and hasn't been received (test scores, transcripts, counselor recs, etc.).</p>
