Grammar error in UCAS personal statement

Hi everyone,

I sent off my UCAS application yesterday (my school has already sent it off to UCAS) and I stupidly reread my PS and realised that I accidentally used a semi-colon instead of a comma in one of my sentences. Is this the end? :/

It's not too bad I don't think, did it still make sense?

I should probably add that I got an English teacher to read it before I sent it off, and she failed to notice the error.

Can't have been too drastic then if she didn't spot it. I'm panicking about my ps, not wrote it yet

It doesn't seem to ruin the meaning of the sentence.

I think the semi colon works just as well as a comma
