Hello. I just submitted the Rutgers application! However, after I submitted it and I looked at it again, I saw that of all my apostrophes and quotation marks in my essay changed to upside question marks like this -> ¿. Is this happening to everyone and is this because of something I did (or didn’t do) or is it just an issue with the application? I really hope this doesn’t affect my chances of getting in. By the way, when I checked my essay before submitting it everything was normal, only after submitting it did it change.
Bump…
Hi there! I just submitted my application to Rutgers about a month ago and I had this exact same problem. I emailed undergraduate admissions and they said that these types of formatting errors are not taken into account during the admissions process so you’re totally fine. I think there might be a bug in their system that causes these weird formatting errors so they’re probably gonna get this problem with a lot of applications (I thought for a second that I had written this post actually lol). Otherwise, good luck on the rest of your college applications!
