Application Help

Welcome to the Unit District No.5 Online Application Center Help page. You are here most likely because you have run into a snag or have a question about the application process. Please review the FAQ first to see if maybe your question has been asked before.

Many problems encountered typically are a result of a form field being improperly filled in. The majority of form fields on each application require that a certain type and amount of text and/or numbers be entered before they will be accepted (except where noted on the form). Ensure that you are not using less often used formats or characters, and always pay attention to the provided examples on the application form.

If your are sure your form is filled out correctly and it still will not submit, the possibility does exist that some kind of server problem exists with Unit 5's equipment. Feel free to notify the Webmaster about any problem you suspect is the result of a problem on Unit 5's end. Please make sure you give some details in regards to error message received or problems encountered so that we may fix them as rapidly as possible.

Please note also: The forms themselves will only function in 4x or newer web browsers. Netscape is not recommended as the format and layout can vary wildly from it's intended look. Additionally, older versions of the 4x Netscape browser do not interact always correctly with the form, resulting in submission errors. It is recommended that you use Internet Explorer 4x or newer when submitting an online application to Unit 5.

If this still doesn't help, feel free to call the Unit 5 Offices during regular business hours with your question.
