I just realized I attached the wrong file to the scholarship I sent out last night. This means that in March, a committee of scholars is going to open up the document I sent them and read a page and a half of my femmeslash fanfic instead of the essay on why science is important to me. I'm sort of having a quiet panic attack right now and I don't even know what to do. Someone please tell me this isn't happening???
Is there a contact phone number you can call to just tell them that you realized there were some major errors in your application and you'd like to resend?
Yes, do this. Tell them you accidentally attached a private document to your application and would like to resubmit. It shouldn't be a problem for them to purge the original app from their system and use the new one. Someone might read your femslah, but I doubt it will affect the application on the whole if they know it was in error and don't just think you're a perv (which they will if you don't say anything).
Oh nonnie, I'm so sorry. If the due date hasn't passed yet, then I think you should call, as the person above me suggests, and tell them you attached the wrong file, and ask whether you can please send a corrected version.
Oh, god, nonnie. That's...not good. Can you contact them, tell them you attahed the wrong file and send them the right one? And then pray they don't open the orignal before deleting it?
SA--I once lost my USB drive on campus (I teach). The USB drive thay held my school-related files...and a bunch of non/dub-con slave!fic. I spent a very panicked 3 days worried that someone would find it and fo through the files trying to figure who it belonged to.
I dropped a USB at a festival with every fic I'd written recently (most of which I haven't been able to find :( ) which had plenty of dubious content. I still live a tiny bit in fear of it turning up intact in the post with a little note attached saying 'next chapter please.'
This actually happened to me once, back when I was in middle school. I left a story I was working on wedged into my desk (underneath), only to remember it after I got home. When I got there the next day, I found a note saying "I liked your story, so I'm keeping it!"
Luckily my name wasn't on it. Looking back on it, I'm kind of flattered, but I sure wasn't at the time...
Well, there's no phone number for this scholarship, but I just emailed the person in charge and asked if they could either let me resend my essay or delete my app from their files. The deadline's in two days, so I think if I don't hear back by them I'm just going to resend the thing. At the least a duplicate entry will probably get me disqualified before they have a chance to look at my submission.
If OP contacts the department quickly enough, it's likely that no one will have had time to process it yet - it'll still be sitting with a secretary somewhere. Then if they can get the proper attachment sent ASAP the scholars will never know.
Call and tell them whatever you need to tell them. Tell them that attachment was a very personal letter, with very personal information, and would they please delete it unopened. It might have had a virus which you since caught and removed, and would they please delete it at once to spare themselves the risk.

If you're not categorically opposed to lying, OP, you could tell them the file you accidentally attached has confidential information.

ANYTHING.

If you have to lie (and if I were you, I would), I think the virus answer is the best way to go.
And then start putting your fic and scholarship essays in separate folders.
