<p>Today i sent in my supplement for boston college because they ask that you send it in as soon as you can. So I take a look on my printed copy, and I misspelled my last name… my last name is “osorio”, but it appears as “osori”. Whats worse is I rechecked to make sure I filled everything else right before I submitted, but I just assumed I spelled my name right. Im going to call bc in the morning and see what they can do. Do you guys think its a big deal? Will they be able to fix it? Will screwing up on the most basic part of the application hurt my chances of getting in? Thanks for any help</p>
<p>No, I don’t think it’s a big deal at all. If you’re a qualified candidate, they wouldn’t reject you because of that. :)</p>
<p>It’s probably the “best” error you could have made, because everybody knows that you know how to spell your own name and you’re not illiterate. Relax.</p>
<p>just as a note for anyone else who sees this – form errors are so easy to fix. i made a silly mistake (put down my personal phone number instead of my home phone number – bad idea because i’ve been away from home) and i called up whichever school and they fixed it immediately with no problems. it’s as simple as pulling up your file and re-typing whatever; it’s really no big deal.

<p>yea, they were able to fix it no problem :)</p>
