So I was looking over my applications on OTCAS over the weekend and noticed I made a grammatical error on my personal statement. If I fix it on OTCAS how will this look to my schools? I've been beating myself up over all weekend because I can't believe the amount of times I read over my essay I didn't catch this.



- Should I upload a revised version of the essay to OTCAS or is the damage already done?
My application was verified over a week ago and I am almost positive the schools already are looking over them.


Thank you!
 
Hey,
It’s okay. It’s just one error. I heard they skim really fast so don’t worry too much.. I forgot a period between a sentence. Also, I don’t think you’re able to change anything once your app it’s verfied.
 
Yeah, I was unsure what you could and couldn't change after being verified. But thank you! Hopefully something that small won't ruin my chances
