<p>Like, for everywhere you've done work, do you need a note with a signature, or what?</p>
<p>No, but it is incredibly low to lie about community service.</p>
<p>I'm not insinuating at all that I would lie. I'm just finishing some service up tonight, and was wondering if I should get them to write something, but I guess not. Thanks.</p>
<p>Some schools do request verification of community service hours especially if the high school gives credit for community service (yes, at my D's high school, because there were a minimum # of community service hours required for graduation, it did show up on the transcript) .</p>
<p>While you may not have to prove it, if it shows that you misrepresented the information on your application, it can and will be be grounds for a college rescinding admission (or even your degree). </p>
<p>Community service hours will not get you admitted but lying about it can keep you out.</p>
<p>Remember if you are doing all of this community service, it is going to end up being collaborated some where, either in your interviews, essays or recommendations.</p>
<p>I wasn't saying you would lie, it just makes me mad when people do. The girl at my school who got the "service scholership" was bragging at the ceremony about how she has never done an hour of volunteering in her life.:mad:</p>
<p>i put a lot of activities on my resume (all true), and I had at least one college (harvard) call my college counselor to verify if the list sounds accurate and something that I would do. i imagine that adcoms would do that a lot if there were some doubt about someone's credentials.</p>
<p>thanks for the info.</p>
<p>i've been doing some work and i wasn't sure what i had to do to "prove it" when applying.</p>
<p>put it down, but as you're putting it down, you might want to mentally go over who you would have an adcom call to verify your activity, and then don't worry about it unless they call :-D</p>
