Will My Likely Letter Be Revoked?

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

Hi everyone,

I recently got a likely letter. I’m a non traditional student because I joined the military out of high school, so even though I have a lot of college coursework because it was all either online or dual enrollment, I applied as a first year. I have about 5 different transcripts to keep track of. The day I got my likely letter I was over the moon but anxious that something was going to mess it up. I went back and crossed all my T’s and dotted my l’s. I was applying for FAFSA for a different school that day when I realized I HAD indeed used a Pell grant before and I completely forgot to include it on my applications. It was 1 online class I took at a random college 3 years ago and never went back after that until I went back to school last year. I immediately emailed admissions and sent them the transcript ASAP. I got a response saying “You’re all set, we received the updated transcript. No further action is needed at this time” I can’t help but think they will think I was trying to pull one over on them and my formal decision will come back as rejected. I didn’t get a great grade in the class but it wasn’t my only bad grade, I was completely honest that I wasn’t a great college/high school student until I went back this past year.

I’m just overthinking I guess. I wasn’t sure if they just meant I’m all set for now and they’ll look at it later. I apologize if this is annoying I see a lot of people freaking out over very small mistakes. I just can’t help but feel like I blew it. I’m glad I caught it early before decisions came out. I couldn’t imagine if I realized later on towards enrollment.

You aren’t being annoying. You are worried and maybe overthinking a bit. It’s fine to relax and take a deep breath. Keep us posted.

I hope you don’t mind that I changed your subject to more accurately reflect your question. When I read your first title, I thought your likely letter had been revoked.

Thank you. I feel I handled it the best way I could. I’ve done all I can do at this point.
