Did I just make a huge mistake?...

Applying to College

<hr>

<p>Ok, so for my Dartmouth waitlist letter, I headed it "Dear Dartmouth University," instead of "Dear Dartmouth College". I kind of just wrote it in 1 sitting and somehow forgot that although Dartmouth is a university, it is called Dartmouth college.</p>

<p>I know my chances are miniscule anyway, but did this mistake destroy any miniscule hope I had left?</p>

<p>They won’t care.</p>

<p>Nah. I wrote a letter of continued interest to Yale and some of their documents say Yale University and others say Yale College, so I’m sure both are acceptable for Darthmouth too.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it. It’s OK.</p>

<p>I just hope they don’t take offense to it and misinterpret my mistake as a sign of disinterest. That worry may be a tad irrational and unreasonable, but I can’t help but think about it.</p>

<p>They won’t even notice. They’ll be more concerned with the body of your letter. They are trying to create a well rounded class. They are admissions officers, not copy editors.</p>

<p>ehhh, dartmouth + university does not exist. So that would look sketchy to me. Just being honest!!</p>
