The clearinghouse showed one last university (somewhere in Texas) that was still accepting applications. Their website gave poor and questionable directions about doing everything through the clearinghouse. They had a second application, but it was a 2-page PDF that they could have done through the clearinghouse. Allegedly it was fillable. They said so many times, but only the last part, where you list the relevant classes that you took. So I used my PDF editor, but that required creating dozens of text boxes, and I thought that it looked unprofessional having everything misaligned horizontally and vertically. I had over half an hour, so I started lining up everything, and lost track of time.

Nuts!
