<p>In my first essay I forgot to add the word "the" in the sentence. Will they penalize me for this or is it just a small error. I already submitted the application. Will they look past that one grammatical error?</p>
<p>yes, it's a minor thing--I feel that Chicago AO's are forgiving and willing to look past stuff on this level.</p>
<p>oh when i went back to look at my essay i found three typos, yet i was still admitted early action. don't worry about it!</p>
