<p>So I submitted a supplement to a uni and I found a spelling mistake after the fact. I spelled "Hawthorne" like "Hawthorn." I feel like a complete idiot, so don't call me one lol. It's to a highly selective uni, though not an ivy, and I'm wondering whether I should email them and apologize. Honest opinions?</p>
<p>that’s a mistake that might go unnoticed; I would not call attention to it by sending an email in any event- I think that would look worse.</p>
<p>They’ll see it, possibly. But also remember that these admission officers go through thousands of applications, so nitpicking isn’t something they do too much. If it’s a consistent, glaring mistake, then yes, you’ll be scrutinized.</p>
<p>It was mentioned once. Thanks for the answers!!!</p>
