    Hi Rudy richardson

    Based on the screenshot, this can sometimes occur due to a temporary issue with the Microsoft Academic Verification service. You can try the following:

    • Retry the verification in an InPrivate/Incognito browser window.
    • Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again.
    • Try a different browser or network and temporarily disable any VPN or proxy if you are using one.
    • Confirm that you are using the same Microsoft account that received the college offer and that you are providing a valid school-issued email address.

    I look forward to your update.
