Problem..

Prep School Admissions
1

<p>I did something wrong on my application to one of the schools, due to me being so careless.</p>

<p>Well, for the part on the essays when you have to say whether or not you went to an interview, the date of the interview, etc., I had typed in the date for the interview and checked off that I DID go to an interview..
But after that, I had a session timeout or something, and totally forgot that the application didn't save that I wrote that I had an interview.</p>

<p>So I sent it out, and even after pressing print preview, I somehow didn't notice that it wasn't filled in, and had submitted it in before it was too late.</p>

<p>I'm so scared now because I don't want them to automatically put me in the reject pile just because my essay app on Gateway says that I didn't have an interview when I actually did.</p>

<p>I'm really scared. Anyone have any advice? I don't know what to do.</p>

<p>Relax. The school will realize that you did in fact have an interview, and will assume it was just a little glitch. No one is going to automatically be thrown into the reject pile, especially over a tiny mistake such as that. Honestly, don’t worry about it - you have time to de-stress until the anxiety kicks in as March 10th grows nearer! Good luck!</p>

<p>You think so? Should I contact the school in case?</p>

<p>Email them, or fax them an updated printout. Don’t sweat it. In the scheme of things, this is a pretty minor mistake and the schools aren’t heartless. They’ll understand. Just call them and ask how to correct the error.</p>
