Sent wrong graduation date on a few apps, but CAS report has correct one. Worth changing and how?

Post by fooniff33 » Fri Jan 08, 2016 1:30 pm

So on a few of a many apps I sent in yesterday when they asked for my graduation date it reported I graduated this semester because I previously filled out the info when I thought I was graduating then. When I changed it on other apps I thought it would then auto fill in with that information but it didn't. I decided to save 4 credits for this semester and will now be graduating after this semester.

It has the correct info on my CAS report that my graduation is after this semester. Should I just shoot the three schools an e-mail?

I'd ask if it is worth the embarrassment but I would guess it is. Input appreciated.

If you're that concerned, then yes, you can just send them an email updating your application "I will be graduating X instead of Y"...

Not sure if you will have an answer but what information should I provide in the email?

Last 4 of SSN? Birthdate?

I was thinking just those two.

Your name and LSAC#. That's how the schools identify you.
