<p>If you are nervous about a Common App g;itch, by all means follow the website instructions and contact USC admissions. The good news is that there remains more than a month before the USC scholarship deadline so there is no need to panic.</p>
<p>Again, at this point (more than a month before the deadline) it is unlikely that USC admissions staff is downloading on a daily basis, so it will likely continue to show as submitted for a week or more.</p>
<p>I am sorry that you are already under so much stress this early in the application process. Try not to get caught up in the daily-application-status-check-cycle. It will drive you crazy and make that wait for April unbearable.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
