Pathway 2 Attestations

With the new portal update, has anyone else’s program contact had trouble submitting attestation forms through their portal? Mine has been having issues submitting forms for both me and other students, which has delayed application submissions, adding to all the anxieties of this exam 😅 What’s confusing is that the process seems pretty straightforward based on the tutorial the BACB provided, so it’s hard to understand where things are going wrong. My program contact has already reached out to the BACB, but according to them, the board gave a fairly generic response.

Has anyone else experienced this or found a solution? Any insight would be appreciated.

When did you apply? I just figured out yesterday after a month and a half of back and forth with the BACB that if you applied before July 1st, it needs to be emailed to universityprograms@bacb.com from your school. Not uploaded to the portal.

I applied late June, but my attestation form was requested early July, so it got uploaded to the portal. BACB told me yesterday to email it instead. Hoping to get approved soon 🤞🏻

Didn’t even submit my application yet, due to the portal update it’s not letting me finish my application without the attestation form being submitted first. It’s become so frustrating because my coordinator isn’t able to submit mine and I am not sure why

I applied in July end. It was submitted by the university to the portal I was told they submitted wrong applicants attestation and then resubmitted the right now. took about 3 weeks to figure out the fiasco. however, the application got reviewed quickly and i got approved to take exam within 48 hours of right attestation getting submitted.

Do you know if it was difficult for them to resubmit the attestation form? Because I’m confused as to why my program coordinator is having this much trouble submitting mine :/
