I accidentally submitted an application where I entered a college’s name on the short answers for another college’s application. I kinda of looks like, “As a College A student, I can offer a new voice at College B.” It was a copy and paste error on my part. I know I should have proofread, I am filled with regret, and it’s completely my fault. I just need to know what should I do from here. Email them?
I’ll be real honest, ad coms always mention that they hate seeing this mistake in which the applicant writes the wrong college name on the application. I would consider it a lost cause. Even if you emailed them, you’re unlikely to get any kind of sympathy.
Thanks for being honest! It was a reach school and very selective.
There is nothing you can do. Sending an email about that will not elicit any response from them. Chalk it up to a lesson learned. It clearly wasn’t your top choice and they will know that. You also know that.
