What date is your interview for? Congrats I know it probably feels great to have an II lined up!
You're interviewing at rochester too! I knew I recognized your username from somewhere haha. Maybe see you either at PSU or rochester! (this may be further evidence of the "fit" aspect of the admissions process)Yep, same submission date here too. Congrats guys!!!
This school is honestly a super great fit for me for a variety of reasons, which gives me a lot of confidence that maybe this process isn't so random after all, and that fit is a major factor. I'm stoked!!

Those who recieved the sencondary today, when was your primary verified?
Anyone's "I certify that I have not taken any of the above exams at any time." box will NOT uncheck? I never checked it, but it remains checked whenever I save. Wondering if this is something I need to email them about.
Okay! Thanks. If it's not just me, then I don't think I need to email and annoy them! ThanksYes, mine too!

I did a research based masters degree and was considering putting the development of my project as "navigating a complex problem"…from picking a topic ( i was in a pretty unique position where my PI was brand new faculty and I had a lot of input about what I wanted to do )…and then going through all the troubleshooting and analyzing typical of any research project.
What do you guys think?
No problem, that's what I was thinking as well! Gl 🙂.
I emailed them about it yesterday and they said:
We apologize for the problem you have experienced completing the Secondary Application, specifically with Question #8 and its check-box.
Our IT department is working diligently to resolve the issue. Please try submitting your application tomorrow (7/29/14) afternoon.
For this question: " Is there a unique aspect of your application that should be considered by the admissions committee? "
I interpreted it to mean, like, "sell yourself in 75 words. explain what makes you special."
but does it mean, like, unique circumstances?
+ 1 submitted today as well. Inspired by the same 🙂. Wonder why it took so long for them to send us the secondary.Submitted secondary today. You all with your IIs inspired me to get it done ASAP!
Wondering this too Jinglechips and sunflower18For those who got interviews, how long did it take before you got the complete email after submitting the secondary/did you get a complete email?

AH that's it thanks so much! I was so perplexed, but yes I have 4 apostrophes. thanks 🙂If you typed it elsewhere and pasted it over, your apostrophes <'> might not transfer over correctly, counting contractions as two words. That's what happened for me.
How long has it been taking for people to receive the complete email?
I don't think Penn State sends complete emails. I never got one but was offered an II.
When was all your stuff in and what were your stats ?![]()
