1. Applicants have to register as users before proceeding. You may use the same registration information to enter the site as often as needed.

2. New users, please follow the “New User” Link. Complete the entries required (name, email, and academic department), enter an active email address, which will serve as your user ID and create YOUR OWN password.

3. Returning applicants, please login with the active email address that you chose previously serving as your user ID and your created password. If you forgot your password, follow the “Forgot your password” link, provide your active email address (the email address that serves as your user ID) and your password will be sent to that email.

4. There is a time-out feature that will close your application if it is unattended for more than 15 minutes. We recommend using word processing and copy/paste your data into the online form.
