OH CRAP! Did I lose my seat? Late Transcript

So I keep my deadlines organized on my desk calendar, and as I get new details (emails, letters, etc) for law school (LSAC, LSAT, deposits) I transfer the deadlines over to my master calender.
As I was reviewing old emails for mailing addresses JUST NOW saw that I transposed the transcript deadline...it was due "no later than June 30, 2010" but I accidentally wrote down the same date as the medical forms (August 1, 2010).
Have I lost my seat? Anybody done this before and survived? I feel like if they are taking students off the waitlist still, who have yet to turn it in, they can still take mine right? I'm going to be thoroughly embarrassed if after a year of working toward LS, I have to wait a-whole-nother cycle to go.
Thoughts? Advice?

I highly doubt you will be forced out in shame because of that.
Call them in the morning.

As opposed to what, hiding and hoping it goes away?

I was considering mailing it, and waiting for them to contact me if there were any issues.

Probably best to pick up the phone and take 36.54 seconds to tell them what's going on.

It just means I think it would really suck to be screwed because of a little deadline like that. I know about as much as you do.
Though I'd definitely recommend calling.

they want your numbers for USNWR (or money or both). they will not kick you because it is a little late. it will probably just delay something, call tmrw.
