Typos in submitted essay

Hi all,

Im applying to a highly selective ivy league school that I absolutely love. Thing is I applied Early so everything is submitted. Reading over my supplements though I found about 4 grammar mistakes and typos. It's really eating at me, and I feel terrible. If I don't get in early, should I just call them and ask to amend my application?

A few grammar mistakes most likely wouldn't lead to decline. My personal opinion is a no, please don't call.
