<p>I recently submitted my supplements via the Commonapp and realized I might have a mistake. Since my mom is an alumni I listed her down, but I accidentally put her married last name! I assume they won't recognize her name and will think I falsely put down a parent as an alumni! What should I do?</p>
<p>Should I just list it under the additional comments in the application section since I haven't submitted that portion yet?</p>
<p>It’s an honest mistake, but if it makes you feel better, you can put it in the additional comments section.</p>
<p>I doubt they even verify it in most circumstances.</p>
<p>Is it appropriate to put it in my additional information section seeing how each common app school I’m applying to will see my additional information section?</p>
<p>If you put it in additional comments doesn’t it go to all schools? Not that it should matter really. Just email the admissions office shouldn’t be an issue</p>
<p>An email would also do, as well.</p>
<p>But, for the record, there is a method to create alternate versions of your application, if you wanted to tailor your application to multiple schools.</p>
<p>Just email. Should be fine.</p>
<p>I would be surprised if U-M does not have a record of your mother’s married name. If she has had any contact with U-M since she was married, it was likely updated.</p>
