Will two typos in my email to admissions ruin my chances?


Question

Posted

I know this is probably (/definitely) a stupid question, but I recently sent a hurried email to admissions due to something changing in my application and didn't realise I had two typos at the very end of the message. I don't have any typos in my actual application but I feel dumb for not being more attentive. If competition was tough could something like this sway the admissions committee? Ugh, grad app anxiety will be the end of me

As long as the typos weren't egregious I think you're fine. You will be judged almost solely (99.9%) on your application content, not the emails you send to admissions.

Did it go to the admissions committee or an admissions counselor? Either way I wouldn't sweat it. That's not going to make or break you. Now if the typo made a funny word or phrase it might help you by making your application stand out!
