Accidentally did not waive right to view forms. How bad?

I intentionally didn’t waive my right to view the letters. I feel strongly about this for two reasons really. Firstly I want to know what my recommenders said about me (as a naturally curious person) and secondly I don’t entirely believe that anything about me should remain a secret from me for the rest of my life. If a college is willing to reject me solely based on that then it’s clearly no college I’m interested in going to.

So take a breath, change your forms if you still can, and if you can’t then remember the world has not ended. If it was truly horrible they wouldn’t give you the option of waiving the right or not.
