<p>I was working on my Purdue University common app essay for several weeks now and I submitted my essays at mid nightt last week. However, I just realized that the essay I submitted was not the correct one. I submitted the rough draft of my common app. Should I email the admission people and ask them to change it or not?</p>
<p>If you made significant edits, I would tell them that you accidentally sent the wrong draft and ask to submit the newer one. If the changes are small and it’s grammatically correct, I’d leave it. They may not see anything wrong with it.</p>
<p>That’s a pretty awful error. Contact them, no one here can tell you if anything can be done.</p>
