The Forms Don't Work. What Should I Do?

All Graduate School forms work best in the software that created them. PDF forms work best in Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader; DOCX files work best in Microsoft Word. If your browser doesn't display a form when you click on the link, your browser is using an incompatible plug-in to open the file. IT has created a service desk article illustrating several ways to open PDF forms. If you are experiencing problems try:

Saving the file to your hard drive and open with the newest version of Acrobat Reader rather than clicking on the link and opening in your browser.
1. Right-click or option-click the hyperlink
2. Save the form on your hard drive.
3. Open the file directly from Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Reconfiguring your browser to open PDF files in Adobe Acrobat or Reader. See the IT support article for instructions.
