<p>I made a mistake on the common app activities.
Whom should I mail regarding the issue?</p>

2

<p>The admissions office at each school.</p>

<p>What kind of mistake? Can you share? It might be so minute as to not merit the effort.</p>

<p>If it’s a couple grammar, spelling, or punctuation errors in the essay, don’t worry about it. I had errors (quotation marks and minor grammar error) in my common app essay and was still accepted. If it is a minor information error like preferred major/minor, don’t worry about it. However, if there is incorrect extracurricular activities info, then I would email the admissions office. If something looks off, the admissions officers often call the school to check if you really have been a leader or participated in a certain club. It would look extremely bad if that information was found to be wrong.</p>

<p>Actually, was debating whether to enter Equistrianism or golf as the last activity.
(I had entered Equistrianism earlier.)</p>

<p>Then finally settled on Golf.
I made the changes in the timing of participation, hours, weeks, and also the details and honkrs won!!
But forgot to change the name and position! :/</p>

<p>So… I guess I should just mail them!</p>
