Typo in my manuscript

[librarianplanes]

Hi all! First post here.

I just submitted all of my applications to MFA programs in poetry today. And of course, despite reading my manuscript 1,000 times, and despite having friends (who work as proofreaders) read it dozens of times, I just found a typo in one of my poems; a rather small one, but still a word spelled incorrectly.

How serious is this? As tomorrow is the final day for all of my schools, should I call and see if I can submit an updated manuscript? Or despite being awful, is this effectively par for the course?

Thanks.
