<p>Well, I'm an international applicant, and almost no one of my school representatives can speak and/or understand spoken English. My GC and other teachers even asked a professional translator to translate their letters of recommendation. However, I've heard that there are a lot of things colleges may want to talk about with school representatives. The question is do colleges really call international schools a lot? I'm a kind of worried about that. Would it affect my application significantly if a college doesn't speak to my high school, verify all the information and stuff?</p>
<p>There is really no point worrying about this because it is out of your control. But, the answer is maybe. Schools are especially concerned about the truthfulness of international applications. Some schools even hire investigators who have skills in the native language to facilitate communications. The only thing you can do is be forthright with the entire application process so any investigation confirms the information you and your school and recommenders provide.</p>
<p>They can and have. But they also understand that language issues can exist, so it’s not for you to be worried. Some of the top schools always investigate, and they tend to know someone in the country, maybe in the area that can act as an agent.</p>
