Worried over Common App for Wake Forest! :(

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

<p>With only two days before the deadline I decided to create an account on this website for last resort advice. As i completed my application for Wake Forest, I reviewed and edited all my supplements and they appeared fine. They were all well within the character limit that they provided. However, when I looked at the "print preview" it shows that a couple of the answers that I provided were cut-off. Of course I checked back and looked at the character limit and for one of the answers there was 12 characters remaining and for the other there was 321 left -yet they were cut off on the preview.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what I can do? Or does anyone else have the same issue? I emailed the Admissions office but without luck because they are all on vacation until after the deadline. Any suggestions? the deadline is fast approaching. :(</p>

<p>Above each essay field, you should have seen a bold piece of text that states your text ‘could’ be cut off and to print preview before you submit.</p>

<p>Remove some of your hard returns as these take up real estate on the PDF yet only count as 1 character.</p>

<p>same thing happened with mine – i had double spaced in between paragraphs. usually if you go back and make it </p>

<p>Paragraph 1
Paragraph 2
Paragraph 3</p>

<p>instead of</p>

<p>Paragraph 1</p>

<p>Paragraph 2</p>

<p>Paragraph 3</p>

<p>it’ll be fixed</p>

<p>Just edit it to make sure the spacing is how you like it and, if needed, cut your essay down some more. Usually, you need ~10 free characters for the entire thing to fit.</p>
