<p>Ok, so I just checked over my supplement for Cornell and realized that in the last paragraph I said</p>
<p>Cornells Industrial Labor and Relations instead of</p>
<p>Cornell's Industrial and Labor Relations</p>
<p>How bad is that?</p>
<p>I actually LOLed when I read that…</p>
<p>um…depends how lenient the reader is. From what I heard ILR profs read your app too. If the prof really loves the school and is an alumni there…etc etc etc, he/she may not look favourably at your essay</p>
<p>I said this twice so I don’t think my chances at Cornell are really looking too bright at the moment</p>
<p>I doubt it will be considered that terrible a mistake.</p>
<p>You at least wrote the correct school on your essay. Admissions officers know that applicants are human.</p>
<p>You could call up admissions and just tell them that you noticed you made a mistake in the name of the school and see if they can put a note on your application that you, at least, caught the mistakes.</p>
<p>Now - that could backfire as the error isn’t that obvious. Someone reading quickly, who sees ILR’s full name written all the time, might skim over it and not even notice.</p>
<p>But, I’d try calling admissions if I were you just to be safe. People make mistakes. They know this.</p>
