Submitting Your Application

Once you've completed all the required elements, you can submit your application. The Submit area of the application indicates what steps you have left to complete. Clicking the links takes you directly to the corresponding part of the application.


Once all required elements are completed, click Submit. If you need to pay an application fee, the Payment Information page appears. Complete this page by entering your credit or debit card information and clicking Next Step. All major credit cards and U.S. debit cards are acceptable.


Next, your payment information is confirmed. To complete your submission and send it to the organization, click the Complete Submission step.

A confirmation window appears, and an email is sent to you. You can use the provided confirmation number to provide to organizations that have trouble locating your application.


Upon submission, the organization has immediate access to your application, and you can no longer edit this application. You can return to the application to view it, print it, or check the status of your references. You may also edit incomplete references after you have submitted your application. If you need to make any other edits after submission, you'll need to contact the organization to request that they unsubmit your application.

Submitting to Multiple Programs

SlideRoom only allows one submission per program for each email address. If you have already submitted to a program, you cannot submit to it again using the same SlideRoom account.

For cyclical programs, organizations create new submission opportunities as needed, allowing you to apply again.

You cannot submit an entire application to multiple organizations or even to multiple programs within one organization, so you'll need to complete the application and submit separately for each program. However, if you are applying to more than one opportunity within the same organization and they are reusing the same questions from application to application, a link appears at the top of the page, allowing you to copy answers from a previous application into the one you are currently working on.


You can also import media from your other SlideRoom submissions rather than having to upload your media again.


Submitting After the Deadline

If you wish to request an extended deadline or grace period, contact the institution directly. If an organization grants this request, it allows you to submit until the new date they establish.

Payment Issues

Why is my payment being declined?
  • If you are receiving an "AVS mismatch" error, this error message occurs because the information you are typing does not exactly match your billing information. 
  • If your payment is declined without an error, that means SlideRoom has information for privacy and security reasons from our payment processor. Please try again or use a different card. If the issue continues, please contact us at and we will help you resolve the issue.
Why is does the payment page keep loading?
  • Some Anti-virus software may block your credit card payment attempts and lock out SlideRoom. Try temporarily disabling them to submit.
  • If you use Kaspersky, try adding SlideRoom as a website safe for making payment from.
