Sign Applications Electronically

If the program you're applying to requires a signature, then you'll need to provide an electronic signature before submitting the application. Your application's status will not change until it is signed and submitted.

How to sign electronically

Since only one applicant can edit an application at a time, only one applicant signature is required. When you've completed the form, click on the Sign and submit button. In the Sign and Submit modal that appears, you'll be presented with several signature options, including:

  • Type - Enter your full name and select a font style from the Style field.

  • Upload - Provide an image file of your handwritten signature.

    Note: Accepted file types are listed in the Guidelines for File Uploads and Attachments.

  • Draw - Use your computer's mouse or trackpad to draw your signature by clicking within the box and signing.

Note: If a signature has already been created, it will appear in a Saved tab. Your signature can also be managed in My Account.

After providing your signature, you can submit your application for review.
