I've submitted an application and am having second thoughts about applying to YC. Is there a way to unapply?

I can do it manually if you want. Just let me know.

the odds of you getting in are tiny

no matter what, they've seen your project

besides, if you did get accepted, why the hell would you turn that down??

let it ride

Ok, I unsubmitted it. If you change your mind just go to /apply and resubmit before the deadline.

Seems a shame to get so far that you're even able to apply to YC, only to un-apply, like wasted potential.
