Uh-oh. Stupid Common Application Error!

Applying to College

<p>I was looking at my Common App again (I was bored), and noticed I made a dumb mistake. I listed two 40 hour a week jobs during the same period of time. Basically, it looks like I had both a camp counselor job and an internship (which both take 40 a week) during the same summer. This is all due to me putting 2006 for the camp counselor job's ending rather than 2005. I've already been accepted into a few colleges and ended up sending my deposit for one. Is there any point in me calling them and pointing the error out?</p>

<p>It shows character, can't hurt to point it out.</p>

<p>Yeah, but won't I look kinda stupid? </p>

<p>No, even the smartest of people make mistakes. There's no need to refer to yourself as Dumb or Stupid.</p>

<p>But if you want to stay super safe, you can just not mention it. I just think it shows character.</p>
