In this example the system lets you know it is acceptable to leave the phone number empty as it requires a US format, and this is impossible for non–US students.
Note these key points in the next image.
- Red arrow: the left panel shows all required 9 steps for successful completion of the application.
- A thumbtack icon indicates which page is currently active (in this image, step 1).
- Green arrow: "Skip & Jump" feature allows you to leave a page unfinished and proceed to another page.
- Blue arrow: shows the ability to save the application for later completion. This feature combined with the skip & jump capability allows the applicant to finish the process in more than one session.
