How many questions are there on the secondary application?

Is anyone having trouble with payment? It keeps just bringing me to this page asking about the credit card billing address but hasn't given me a space to put in the card number yet.

Edit: (Payment with the $80 secondary fee)
 
Has anyone been able to pay yet? I cleared my cache and everything and it's still not working for me

I was able to pay today. Maybe try using Internet explorer or a different browser. If none of that works call them or send an email to see if something is going on
 
For #2 of the secondary did you all use bullet format to list the dates and activities for the gap year (with very short descriptions)?
I'm scribing and explaining the importance/impact on my life seems like overkill.

Yes I used bullets as I thought that would be the most clear thing for the reader
 
Has anyone used the Fee waiver? I can't figure out how to submit without actually paying the 80 bucks.

Edit: I'm an idiot.

If you are a FAP recipient You don't need to do anything else just submit your secondary and the Casper. You are automatically waived !!

Thank you. Yea, that was the "I'm an idiot" edit. I missed like 6 parts of the instructions for this app. lolz
 
I received an email stating that they received the part 1 of the secondary. I'm assuming we will get a complete email when our casper scores get back to them.

How long did it take for you to get the email that they received the Part 1? I submitted mine tuesday afternoon
 
I received an application complete email from them on the 11th. It says that they got your part 1, Lors, and casper score.
 
I'm still having trouble with the payment link 🙁 I am wondering how people were able to successfully get in and pay? Thanks!

Just wanted to confirm, so the RWJMS secondaries don't have the short essay prompts that you could have replaced taking CASPer with? Now it's just mandatory to take CASPer only right?
 
Anyone think it's worth explaining this GPA trend in the first box - 3.80, 3.76, 3.94, 3.70? In reference to the drop from 3rd year to 4th year.

Anyone else end up wondering how much to write when there are no set limits? Since the document just says the text boxes are suggested space, but I dont want to end up missing info and at the same time going overboard lol
Maybe use 150 words max as a guideline.
