you are calling much too much attention to a small detail.



I agree. Correct the issue for colleges you haven’t submitted your application to . . . and let it go for the the two that you’ve already sent. As this NYTimes article states, colleges are having enough issues with the New Common Application and your error, in the scheme of things, isn’t that critical: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/13/education/online-application-woes-make-students-anxious-and-put-colleges-behind-schedule.html?hp



Colleges around the country have posted notices on their admissions Web sites, warning of potential problems in processing applications.
