Stupid Common Application Mistake

<p>I accidentally attached the rough draft of my persona essay on the Common App ... if I send in a fax with the final essay tomorrow (1/8/10), would that be fine? Have the adcoms already started meeting?</p>

<p>Also, do you think it would be a bad idea to mail the essay too? Would they frown upon duplicates?</p>

<p>When I made a similar mistake applying to Caltech (a long time ago), I called and learned that they preferred I mail in the essay. Why not call and ask them how they would prefer you send it?</p>

<p>I did. They take it multiple ways. Do you think it is too late?</p>

<p>I wouldn’t know, but for what it’s worth Caltech ended up accepting me. :)</p>

<p>Send it in tomorrow! I think it will almost certainly be in time.</p>

<p>CALL them!!! ASAP!! No way they’ve started reading your app especially if you just turned it in on 1/1. I made a mistake by not posting my 3rd Subject test since I replicated my commonapp from my other app which only needs 2 subject tests. I’m going to call tomorrow!</p>
