<p>Ok, so say you applied to a school and sent in your application with your essays and everything. And only later discovered a typo (not a big deal one). Do you think this would affect a person's chances at whatever college at all? Just curious.</p>
<p><em>bump</em> i'm just asking how much you guys think typos affect college admissions decisions...</p>
<p>Although I'm not certain, I would have to imagine they will care. I think that they trust that they gave you enough time to proofread it etc. However, if the essay is simply great, one mestake or typo shouldn't change anything. :)</p>
