Submitting an app with a typo

Post by DaRascal » Fri Nov 02, 2012 12:31 am

I just realized I submitted after I submitted my Duke app that my Why Duke essay had a minor typo in the first sentence. I'm already a URM with a well below median LSAT. Am I in serious trouble? Should I contact them or should I just not bring attention to it? Feel like this will jeopardize whatever small chance I might have had...
