Application Question Accidentally applied regular and not ED

help. i’ve never been on reddit before — i got the app and made an account just for this. i wanted to apply to UPENN w early decision. when i first started my application, i wanted to do regular decision but ive since changed my mind. what i haven’t done is change the option in the application. i just submitted my application an hour ago and realized I APPLIED REGULAR INSTEAD OF ED. i immediately emailed upenn but im so scared and i think it’ll take a couple days for a response. is it possible for them to change it in their system???? will they even care???? has anyone also made this dumbass mistake before???😭😭😅😅😅😭😭😭😭😭pls help me!!!

Request that they convert your application to Early Decision. Print off the Early Decision Agreement https://commonapp.my.salesforce.com/sfc/p/#d0000000eEna/a/Vz000005LXKf/toRYiNVADPCqEUOsnmJ6urCQvA5klRtzAJxA_J9kM8A

Fill it out, sign it, get the signoff from a parent, bring it to your school counselor for a signature and ask your school counselor to submit it.
