Just curious as to how you guys deal with a mistake made filling out the supplemental application. This is involving an application where you have only one copy and cannot mess up. Do you guys just draw a line across it or use whiteout? Which way would look more professional or acceptable?


Thanks.
 
try using that whiteout that comes out in a strip and is already dry. that stuff is awesome!!

out of sheer curiosity, which app is it?

Pikeville College. The supplemental application is composed of one sheet of paper twice the width of a normal sheet of paper folded together into a leaflet. I don't know if they will allow applicants to make a photocopy or not.

wow, that sounds like a serious pain in the ass. i would just white it out and send it in corrected. or maybe call them and see if you can photocopy it. good luck.

For those kinds of apps (as well as ones form a book like LECOM) I just cut the pages to normal size and copies. I still got interviews so apparently it’s not a problem. Just put them together nicely.

Nice to know. I guess I'll use whiteout to remove the blemishes and make copies of them. Thanks.

Why can't they make those fillable pdf files? Geeezz!
