You'd have to be a certified moron for that to be an honest mistake.

^ yup no way this was an honest mistake. you have to have the IQ of a goldfish to make mistakes like that these are people gaming the system. Sincerely hope they get caught and all their acceptances are rescinded.

Sounds like they didn’t get any acceptances. Karma at work.

This is the same OP who said her kid was applying to 2 schools early and that the counselor was "clueless."

Guidance counselors only get notified when the kid is applying to a binding ED. Early action isn't binding; f*ck these colleges and apply to all of them!
