<p>Okay guys, I'm freaking out a little. I just realized I might have typed 1/1/2009 instead of 1/1/2010 as a force of habit in the signature part of the common app. What can I do? I'd hate to get rejected because of a mistyped DATE of all things!</p>
<p>Somebody put my mind at ease!</p>
<p>its okay. colleges realize you’re human and that is actually a common mistake so don’t worry.</p>
<p>LOL
I don’t think they would evn notice. Even if they do, they would understand it. Everyone mkes that mistake. If they reject you for writing 2009, they don’t deserve your love…</p>
<p>yeah dont worry, its just a mistake, i think colleges know what you mean</p>
<p>Yea, but isn’t the signature like sealing a contract. Wouldn’t it be void if I put the wrong date?
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh</p>
<p>I almost did the same thing but the Common App wouldn’t let me submit because the date was wrong.</p>
<p>So does that mean I somehow put the correct date and I don’t remember? Ugh.</p>
<p>Edit: Okay, I just tested it with one of the schools I didn’t really want to go to and you’re right. I feel a thousand times better now.</p>
<p>hahaha I’m surprised no one was like ‘wow you lied on a legal document. they won’t take your app’</p>
<p>^^yea as far as I recall, I once entered the wrong date but Common app wouldn’t let me submit. maybe you forgot that you actually fixed it? either way…chillax ;]</p>
