Oh great, I'm applying to a university that doesn't proofread their own stuff.

I sense their bar is low.

To be fair, usually this crap is made by the university equivalent of HR folks. They aren't the academics you'd be learning from (although, they will also typo because grammar and subject mastery are not the same thing unless you're studying grammar!)

Even as a grammar expert, it's easier to find other's typos than your own.

I'm a ruthless editor that can drill in and find minute details and the smallest errors in two languages.

I've also misspelled my own name in formal documents.
