So I had on my resume “2017 to present” when I submitted it with my transfer app last week. I didn’t really bother checking the resume before submitting it, and I saw it only now. I’m unemployed the September. What do I do? Do I call Admission Office and tell them that it’s outdated? I’m applying to the need-aware school, and when they look at my financial aid form, they will see the discrepancies in the information I provided. Will they? Or Admissions Office and FA office don’t talk to each other so they wouldn’t find out? Could they call my “employer”? If they do call him, and get the information that I used to work there but not anymore, what are they going to do? I’m not sure what should I do now. I’m afraid that if I call Admissions and tell them this after a week’s already passed, it would make me look incredibly bad in their eyes.
First, read this http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/470497-clam-fart-oh-my-god-what-did-i-do-p1.html
Second, send an email stating: I noticed an error and i wanted to correct my resume to say that I worked at Bobby’s Burger Barn from 1/2017 to 9/2017.
Or don’t worry about it…admissions isn’t going to pay attention to the financial aid form…and if they did they would look at what you said on the financial aid form.
