Issues with UPitt applicant portal?

Hey guys, I applied to the University of Pittsburgh and I'm trying to check my application status on their applicant portal. I am having some difficulties and was wondering if anyone else has had similar issues? Can anyone guide me on how to troubleshoot this?

Hello! Experiencing issues with a college application portal can be quite common and is not usually something to worry about. Here are some simple steps you can try to resolve this:

1. Clear your browser cache and cookies: Sometimes, this can fix common issues with logging into websites. Once you've cleared the cache and cookies, close your browser entirely and then re-open it before attempting to log back into the portal.

2. Try a different browser or device: If after following the first step you are still unable to access the portal, it's worth trying a different web browser. If you’re normally using Chrome, try switching to Firefox or Safari. You could also try using a different device, like a mobile phone or tablet.

3. Double-check your login information: Look back over the emails you received from the University of Pittsburgh to ensure you are using the correct username and password.

4. Wait and try again later: If all else fails, the issue might lie with the college’s portal itself, particularly if they're performing maintenance or updates. In that case, waiting an hour or two and then retrying might be the best course of action.

If you're still having trouble after following these steps, my best advice would be to get in touch with the University of Pittsburgh's admissions office or tech support directly. They should be able to help troubleshoot the issue further or give you an update if it's a college-wide problem. You can provide a detailed description of the problem you're facing, including any error messages you're getting. This will help them better understand the issue and assist you appropriately.

I hope these steps help you gain access to your application status soon!
