<p>Well, long story short, I submited my application to 5 schools EA all with a mistake in the main essay. I wrote "I want follow in their footsteps". Should I just not expect to get in. I'm thinking about removing all those applications and just applying somewhere ED so I atleast have a chance.</p>
<p>Please don’t beat yoursef up about this. This error will NOT keep you out! I rea;lized after I submitted one of mine that I had a glaring typo plus a big error on another part of the app (I even had to email the schol to correct it).And I just got accepted EA with a large scholarship. So take a deep breath and try to relax. I bet that most applucations and essays have errors. Good luck!</p>
<p>One or two small errors show that you actually wrote the essays yourself, as opposed to hiring a professional to “edit” them.</p>
