Creating application account

Hey everyone, I am applying this cycle and first thing is I have to create an account! Of course, I already have my DENTPIN.

Where it says select school, there is an error when I click to add what school I go to:

"An error was encountered while processing your request.
Please try back in a little while, and contact ADEA AADSAS support if the problem persists. We apologize for the inconvenience."

Anyone having the same issue?

This may be a very silly question, but it also asks for School Address. Are they referring to the address of the college I attend or my personal address where I live when I attend college?

Many thanks in advance guys.

I'd just give it a rest until the morning. If it isn't working then, call AADSAS.

For the school address, what is the question in context? Is it prefaced by a question that says, "where do you go to school?" Or is it just prefaced by general questions about your personal information?

After I give my name, it says "select school." There, I cannot select the school and I get the error message.

Right below it, it says "School Address." Here's a screenshot just for the hell of it.

Uhh... Why does it say create new "ADVISOR ACCOUNT"? You said you're applying right? Shouldn't it be like.. create a new applicant account?

I just tried.. and I think AADSAS is screwed up atm in terms of creating a new account. You might wanna call them.

 

[wildzodiac]

Yeah, I saw the "ADVISOR ACCOUNT" heading.


https://portal.aadsasweb.org/

I don't have an account to start the application, so I clicked "create new account" on the left side of the page. Can someone direct me to the right place so I can get started?

 

[dbd]

That's where I clicked to create one.. I think that they screwed up the links. Call them and ask them about it tomorrow.

If you think that the simplest part of the application would be at all straight-forward,

Issue still not resolved. Any input from anyone else out there? I'm going to call tomorrow... 😡

Press back, refresh the page, then click create a new account again. If it doesn't work then press back, refresh the page, then click create a new account again until you get a page that looks like this.

AADSAS keeps switching between asking me to create an applicant account and an advisor account whenever I refresh and press create a new account. Usually it switches every time I press refresh, but sometimes it keeps asking me to create one type of account but it will inevitably switch at some point if I keep refreshing or just close the tab and open a new one.

I did get to that page, filled it out, and when I clicked the "save" button on the bottom, it then took me to the "ADVISING APPLICATION" form...

Yeah, the same thing happened to me, and I had to refresh the page. I actually called the AADSAS support line and talked to a person who told me to do this, so they know a fix, but he didn't acknowledge any problem...and clearly there's a problem.

Just registered my account. Worked perfectly fine with no glitches for me. Not planning on submitting yet so was waiting to register.

Almost every time I click the "Create New Account" link, I see the adviser account creation page with the non-functioning "Select School" box. However, most of the time when I refresh that page it turns into the student applicant page.

On the first day I actually unwittingly submitted an adviser account application, and I waited a week for the promised acknowledgement. I called AADSAS when that didn't come, and got the guy who told me to refresh the page. I'm actually surprised this isn't bothering more people.

 

[wildzodiac]

Yeah, I finially got it to work. Yayyyyy

You don't select any school, because that's the adviser account creation page. You hit refresh until you get a form that doesn't ask for the school, then hope you can submit. That's what worked for a few of us anyway.
