Mistake on common app

Maybe someone can answer this question. While I was reading over my common app after submitting it I realized that for one of my activities I put that I had qualified for nationals rather than states. Should I email admission offices or will they understand my mistake??

What activity ? Does it change the context of who you are ?

I’d likely leave alone but change for future applications if you have any left.

I would recommend writing to the AO to correct this. Qualifying for nationals is a bigger deal than states. Mis-stating your accomplishment isn’t good, so set the record straight.
