Oh god...submitting wrong version of common app for 1/1 deadline

Applying to College
1

<p>Well, crap.</p>

<p>Before I found out I could replicate and update my common app, I submitted my app to Boston U that has the EC writing sample that needs to be redone. It's too long, has a run on sentence, and doesn't even talk about the right EC that makes me stand out.</p>

<p>However, of course, with today being the deadline and the BU offices closed from 12/23 on, I had to submit everything.</p>

<p>Is there a chance I can call them up first thing tomorrow and let them know of my error and they'll allow me to resubmit my common app?</p>

<p>Am I screwed?</p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>(I have no idea, but hopefully someone else can answer)</p>

<p>You're really not allowed to resubmit it, but you can call and hope.</p>

<p>i think they might be understanding.
when you call though, dont hate on yourself, that will make you look bad
just say you messed up and are sending in a new applicaiton as soon as possible. i would consider emailing them just so you can seem calm and collected.</p>

<p>I don't think that they even respond to an email until a week later at least...</p>

<p>A call is your best bet.</p>

<p>Yeah, at least with a call I'll be sure to get some kind of answer.</p>

<p>I'll post how they treat me, hehe.</p>
