<p>There is something on the part one that you should describe your background, which needs 100 words, and the rest was just some basic biographical info.
I was working on it when the website crushed down. =(</p>
<p>Interestingly enough, the same thing happened a few years ago (see: [My</a> College Essay | MIT Admissions](<a href=“http://mitadmissions.org/blogs/entry/my_college_essay]My”>My College Essay | MIT Admissions))</p>
<p>So hopefully they are not cutting us late submitters off. What a relieve.</p>
<p>I was about to pay and submit !!!</p>
<p>Yeah MIT then gave a couple extra days to submit</p>
<p>@napcazlabusati - That’s a relief :)</p>
<p>I can’t access the login page anymore because I’m getting redirected to a different page
<a href=“MIT Admissions”>MIT Admissions;
<p>Understandably google chrome is giving me a redirect loop error -_-</p>
<p>@napcazlabusati
proof plz. haven’t heard this</p>
<p>Yes, an extra three days as I remember. It’s on MIT’s website, go google it.</p>
<p>@PRahman the following is copied and pasted from [My</a> College Essay | MIT Admissions](<a href=“http://mitadmissions.org/blogs/entry/my_college_essay]My”>My College Essay | MIT Admissions) which is MIT’s official blog site - they don’t make everyone bloggers -
…
The online submission date was November 1. Shortly before then, something amazing happened.
The website crashed.
ZOMG THE SITE CRASHED
If I recall correctly, nothing was actually lost. But for the trouble, we were granted a few extra days to submit our applications. The due date was moved to Friday, November 4th 11:59pm.
…</p>
<p>now it seems to be giving a 404 Not Found error
<a href=“http://web.mit.edu/admissions/common/toobusy.html[/url]”>http://web.mit.edu/admissions/common/toobusy.html</a></p>
<p>At least the changing redirects prove they’re working on it :)</p>
<p>@napcazlabusati A change is a good thing isn’t it? Now this is getting exciting.</p>
<p>I’m sorry for being so skeptical and apparently inept at finding official information, but I was wondering if someone can link me to the page where the extension is located for the upcoming December deadline.</p>
<p>Well people it’s 2:22 A.M., 1/1/2013 in China so I wish you all a happy new year and myself a good night. I do hope I will wake up a couple of hours later and find the website working again. =)</p>
<p>^ The deadline hasn’t been extended for this year yet. But if the problems continue into tomorrow, there is a good chance they will extend the deadline a few days.</p>
<p>Any official updates will be found on mitadmissions.org</p>
<p>oh ok that’s chill</p>
<p>They’ve now recognized the problem haha
[Site</a> Problem | IS&T](<a href=“http://web.mit.edu/ist/system-down.html]Site”>Site Problem | IS&T)</p>
