<p>My father is actually unemployed. But I made a big mistake by saying that my father had a job on my additional information---commonapp. (I wrote a small paragraph about my family's situation, and indirectly said that my dad had a job)
What should I do now??????????????????????? I had actually thought that my father had a job :/</p>
<p>Means nothing as to admission. Means a lot to financial aid but that will be determined by info submitted on the FAFSA, which I assume you haven’t sent yet and best to check as to when it is due for particular college.</p>
<p>Well, it seems as if you did not make a mistake. You fully thought your father had a job. That won’t change your admission, but be sure to write the current situation when applying for financial aid.</p>
<p>So, will I still be fine? I’m worried 
Will the admission officers ask the financial aid office to get some personal information about my parents and find out my big mistake?</p>
<p>The admissions office asking the fin. aid. office for information is pretty unlikely. I think you’re fine, just make sure you mention your current situation at an interview and on your scholarship/FAFSA/aid applications. The office will assume circumstances changed, and if they ask, you can always explain your mistake.</p>
<p>Like everyone else said, it means nothing to admissions officers.</p>
