<p>First off, this is not a question about figuring out how to lie on the UC application, but does anybody know how thoroughly they verify extracurricular, community service, and academic honors, etc? Do they do random verifications?</p>
<p>Trying to figure out just HOW THOROUGHLY one should try to remember all the details and time spent per week, weeks per year, etc.</p>
<p>Any help?...</p>
<p>They do nothing of the sort, unless your EC info is just blatantly made up. Admissions has to sort through 50,000 applications. Your ECs are important, but IMHO, personal statements carry more weight.</p>

<p>In addition to the post-admission verification, the University conducts a pre-admissions verification with a random sample of applicants, who are notified in early January that they must submit verification documents in order to be considered for admission. Applicants may be asked to verify an item from one of the following application sections: Awards/Honors, Extracurricular Activities, Community Service, Educational Participation Programs (formerly Special Program Participation), Work Experience, Academic History, and the Personal Statement.**[/size] Falsification is the basis for a denial or revocation of admission to the University. Failure to submit the required documentation by the deadline will result in applications being withdrawn from further admission consideration at all campuses.</p>
<p>JUST GIVE ROUGH ESTIMATES FOR YOUR ECS AND OTHER STUFF.</p>
<p>....whoa, calm down there. </p>
<p>Remember kids, always check the UC website first before relying upon CCers who may (or may not) have a clue!</p>
<p>Here's the thing. To the best of my knowledge, you don't write down contact information for your club's advisors, or of any other people who can verify your honors/work experience/etc. Therefore, the only way UCLA could verify these would be through you. All you'd have to do is submit a letter from whomever that you have to get the letter from.</p>
<p>Emmeline-thanks for the info! You are absolutely 100% right!!! And on top of being right, it only makes sense. Sure, they can't go through 50,000 verifications, but they can sure do a random sample! Thanks again!</p>
<p>it definitely happens.</p>
<p>both my roommates got audited.</p>
<p>i think the stress is getting to Emmeline. :eek:</p>
<p>
No... :(;)nonsensenonsense</p>
<p>Wow, having to be censored...tsk tsk Emmeline. :p</p>
<p>Actually ekn111, I was messing around so much with size and other VBcode features that I created enough of an eyestrain that prompted UCLAri to take action.</p>
