Oops - Discrepancy in my application?
Posted: Wed Nov 13, 2013 9:23 pm
Despite all my efforts to quadruple-check my application, I managed to find an issue...after I've already submitted it.
I submitted my early decision application to #1 Dream School this morning. I just realized that my resume says I graduated in May, while my transcript says I graduated in July. Technically, both are true. I walked across the stage and graduated in May, but the university mailed my diploma in July because an internship I did this summer was worth credit. I cannot believe I didn't catch this and include it as an addendum. I've been obsessing about this for an hour. I already called and talked to admissions about something else earlier this week, so I don't want to seem like a problem child by calling again...but I'm also terrified that they will think this is some careless mistake (let's face it, it kind of is). What should I do?
