For my common app essay, there are two spaces between each paragraph, which makes it look really strange. I corrected it, but not before I sent it to one of my target shools rip.
@sumuzu I don’t think they’ll really care that much; I skimmed over it and didn’t even catch the mistake until I re-read it.
For my college application, I put my school as a secondary school even though it isn’t. Is there any way I can fix it?
I accidentally put I’ve lived in the state for two years when in reality I’ve lived there my whole life…oops 
One of the pieces that I am submitting for my portfolio had a really pretentious two word latin title that I was already unsure about. Found out today I misspelled BOTH of the words. Makes it look like not only am I pretentious but idk what the heck I’m even talking about!
I used the wrong tense in one sentence of my common app personal statement. Hopefully it isn’t too glaring.
I also left out one of my activities in the extracurricular section! Life is great.
-Accidentally put down the wrong year for an activity completed in the summer (11th as opposed to 12th)
-Overlooked including my SSN (facepalms) (I faxed it to them though)
-Forgot two (?) freshman courses for Brown’s STEM supplement that asked me to list the courses that pertained to my major (? Not sure if this is a mistake–one of the freshman courses was mandatory, and neither really related that much to my major…but they were STEM)
I spelled that like thar at the end of my main common app essay lol
for classes in upcoming year I put “Skakespeare” instead of “Shakespeare” Literally looked over the final pdf at least 3 times and I still left an error. Hopefully it isn’t held against me to bad…
Just put down the wrong date for my interview. The app asked for it twice in separate sections, and only one of the dates I put down were correct. I ended up emailing the admissions office but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal.
Well, unfortunately I have submitted my letter of intent to three universities without checking it and all of the three letters of intent have the same university name!! Looool I think I will not be accepted in any of them ?
iI who wrote beat instead of bead on a top tier college supplemental essay, read the app over many times, had my English teacher read app over and edit it, and submitted it all without it being noticed until I just read it now.
im so glad this thread exists?? i made a dumb typo in my additional information and i was so mad at myself. I wrote children in orphans and shelters instead of orphanages AGHJSKDF
Accidentally left out a word on my supplemental essay. Typed “My junior year is I decided…” Meant to type “My junior year is when I decided…” kms
