How
to load your documents using our Document Loading System (DLS):
Note: You are not required to upload documents
yourself. You can choose to fax, Email or mail
your documents and have us upload them for you.
Here the steps:
First,
you must have the documents saved in your computer as .gif
or .jpg. If you have no saved documents yet,
then please scan and save them
in a .gif or .jpg formats. If you don't have a scanner and
want your documents on a CD then you can use a service such as Kinkos©
or OfficeMax© and ask them to scan and save your documents on
a CD in any of the two above formats.
If you have multiple
pages for one document you must name and save each
document separately and upload them in order. For example, a
three page dean's letter must be saved as three separate
pages, numbering each page as "deansletter1,
deansletter2, deansletter3". Avoid using illegal
characters in file names. For example, in Dean's letter,
remove the apostrophe from file name, otherwise it won't
upload.
Make sure that your documents are rotated properly and not to
load documents that are horizontally oriented. The way you
load it is the same way you view it.
Save your documents in one common
place before you upload them, unless you have them all in a CD then
you will load it to our system directly form the CD. If the documents
are scattered all over your computer, we recommend you to
create a folder on your desktop and call it "residency
Documents". Drag all the files into this folder for easy
access.
Now this is the easiest part. After you have completed all
four steps
above, login to your account and create new portfolio. Start loading the documents by
clicking on the "browse" button. Select the file that
corresponds and then click "upload", wait few seconds then you
can click on the 'View" button to preview that document.
If you are creating separate portfolios for different
specialties, you can load unique documents separately as
well. For example, you may want to have different personal
statement for each specialty, that is possible with our
system.
Remember that it is very important to have the Universal
Application Forum (UAF) completed as soon as possible. Without
UAF you will not be able to activate your portfolios.
