I know it was just a mistake.

Getting it changed is another matter. I don't feel that I should be penalized and not be able to participate in Rush over an ERROR. I feel that would be tremendously unfair to me.
Okay, I don't know what school you are at, but I teach at two universities, and I would tell students at either one to go through the Dean of Student's office for this situation. I assume you have some sort of documentation of your illness.
