Is anyone having the problem of reaching the "Date/Test Site Availability" page but the calendar and map won't load? Is there any other way to select a site and date without using the graphics?

I'm so frustrated because I'm here but I can't search/select anything. The only thing I can do is refresh and hope the graphics load...

There is definitely a text-only way of picking a site. On the left sidebar under Search Location and the Zip Code text bar, there is a hyperlink to "Search by State or Country."

Doing this will let you go into a drop-down menu to select a test date and location.

Thanks 🙂 , but I think the link you're talking about never loaded for me. Only the Search box and search button appear and below that it reads "Test Sites" with nothing below it... No map on the side either.

I'm sorry; I spoke too soon. Now that I think about it, you're right - I do remember seeing that. If I ever gain entry again, I will try that - thanks!! 😀

I had this problem at about 8:50 this morning, again at about 9:20 and 9:35, and then I finally got past it, only to have to do the same thing on the consent page. I've been on "page won't load" since then.

EDIT: Oopsies..responding to the wrong problem. Mine was in choosing the college from the popup menu...the menu wouldn't load.

They ARE teasing us! The same thing happens to me. After several attempts, I triumphantly reach the login page only to have it not load the next page.

Thanks, ylitia. I tried it and it did give me a page with "select date." After selecting the date I got sent to page error again. Hopefully it'll work soon.

People having three computers going at once is part of the problem, and one of the reasons we underestimated the number of computers that were going to try to access the site all at once. If the 20,000 hits (literally) we got in the first minute had spread themselves across the morning, we probably would have been ok.

No excuses, just info.

20,000 hits? Yah, I'm probably half of that 😛

Well not really, I've been mixing up trying to login and the Nintendo Wii..the wii is winning.
