Update-to-the-update : Back online. The Sloan website problem has been fixed, and just finished the required parts of the application. Sloan must be the easiest application to fill out. Took me all of ten minutes I guess. Need to upload the self-reported transcripts. will do that once I get home from work tonight.

And one more thing. MIT's application has this to say on deadlines : "Should you experience problems submitting your online application during the deadline (48 hours before or 24 hours after), please send an email to adcom@sloan.mit.edu"

So, would they be more willing to accomodate applications that are submitted a little later than the stated deadline ? Good thing, if you ask me ;-)
