Hi everyone, I'm a current applicant and recently caught a mistake in my primary:

Basically kicking myself because I just caught that I referred to a publication in my primary as "submitted" instead of "accepted", though the publication was fully published prior to my initial submission. I was curious if anyone else has been in a similar situation and how to go about updating schools with the correction.

Should I include the correction in a full update letter to each school, or can I submit a brief corrective message to each school now and send my complete update portfolio later? I have a few activities I would be able to update schools on later this year, but I'm not sure if sending multiple updates within a short span is a great idea. Basically, is this error important enough to now send out brief corrections to each school. If anyone has any advice or a similar experience, I would greatly appreciate it!
