<p>I just read over my essay again, and I noticed a really embarrassing mistake. I had a paragraph that was supposed to begin "The reason I love Penn is...", but I forgot to put a space in, and it says "The reason I love Pennis..."</p>
<p>Rofl. That is quite an amusing mistake. I noticed a few mistakes on my app and essay after submitting them. At first, I was freaking out about it. But honestly, there is nothing you can do about it now. Just relax. We’ll see what happens on Friday.</p>
<p>jkjk, ya, this is quite embarrasing, but i don’t think it will hurt your chances. in fact, it might provide some laughter to the admission office, so, who knows?</p>
<p>It could have been much worse. At least you didn’t omit one of the “n’s” in Penn…?! One little space on an essay isn’t going to tarnish your whole body of work that makes up your application.</p>
<p>I doubt that is going to hurt you. I’ve made the classic mistake of using the wrong name in the essay. I applied to Vandy, Cornell and Emory using the common app. Needless to say, my essay said something along the lines of “I love Vanderbilt”. I had a fun time contacting admissions offices and fixing that one.</p>
