mistake in app, reject?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>Ok, mostly all the colleges I am applying to only look at 10-12 grades. These are all the UC's, and stanford and princeton.</p>

<p>Harvard was one of the only two schools that look at all 4 years. However, I was so used to putting my 10-12 GPA, that I forgot about Harvard looking at all 4 years, and so I put my 10-12 GPA on the Harvard App too. Of course, I specified in the section where you put the years that the gpa/rank covers that it was the 10-12 GPA.</p>

<p>How bad will it be? Will Harvard think I am somehow trying to cheat them because my 10-12 GPA is higher than the 9-12? Auto-reject?</p>

<p>It's a mistake, but it won't lead a an auto-reject.
The admissions often re-calucate the GPA in their standards anyway.
So don't worry.</p>

<p>Harvard recalculates gpa anyway based on its own standards.</p>

<p>However, you should send admissions your correct gpa, telling them that you accidentally put the wrong gpa.</p>

<p>dont worry about it. theyll have your transcript anyways.</p>

<p>that's an understandable mistake. an unacceptable mistake would be to say that you have a 4.6, when your actual gpa is a 2.0</p>
