<p>I just found out that I made a mistake on all of my applications.</p>
<p>When I listed my leadership extracurricular activities and put the years, I wrote:</p>
<p>National Honor Society - President (2004-2005)
Student Council - Treasurer (2004-2005)</p>
<p>The problem is that I put 2004-2005 instead of 2005-2006.</p>
<p>Is this a big deal? Do I even need to correct it? How should I go about fixing it?</p>
<p>I don't think it's a big deal but for the sake of accuracy I would send them all a brief letter explaining you made an error. They will appreciate your honesty.</p>
<p>thanks for the advice. should I send an email (since it would be faster) or send a mail letter?</p>
<p>I guess I would send a letter because it is more likely to get put into your file. If you have access to a fax, that is one way to make it quicker.</p>
<p>Don't send them anything. Admissions offices are already busy trying to put everything together and something minor like this will only take time away from it.</p>
