Name Spelling

<p>If my name is spelled one way legally, Javairia Ahmed, but is spelled slightly differently in my school records/transcript, and SAT/AP tests, Javeria Ahmad, will this cause a problem for admissions officers? How should I spell it on my Common App? Should I email each of the school's I am applying to and let them know about the variations in spelling?</p>
