Common App Family Section

<p>My parents are divorced, and I live with my dad. On the application I stated I make my permanent residence with my dad, however, on my mom's section I accidentally said that she lives at the same address as I do. Do I need email the colleges I already submitted the application to and fix this, or is this not a big deal? My mom only lives about 20 minutes away from me and my dad...</p>

<p>It’s not a big deal. The college you finally decide to attend may use this info to create its parent mailing lists, and your financial aid apps need to correctly indicate your parents’ info, but for your application it isn’t a concern and you don’t need to correct it now.</p>
