What do you do with blank spaces in an online graduate school application?

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009
Mary H asked:


I’m applying to graduate school. The majority of the schools I’m applying to don’t offer paper applications, which means I must fill out online applications. With traditional paper applications, you write N/A in fields that don’t apply to you. Do I do the same for online applications, or just leave the fields blank? In some parts of the application, the instructions specifically say: leave field blank.

For the other fields, do I just leave them empty, or physically write N/A in every single field?
