<p>To what degree are colleges able/willing to check extra curricular activities? Do they ever check, and if they do, under what circumstances do they check?</p>
<p>i think they'd only check major things like, "I hosted a television show" or "I am U-18 Soccer player for <country>" etc.</country></p>
<p>interesting question. I guess if you put yourself president of like more than 5 clubs, they'd probably investigate IMO.</p>
<p>I'd definitely be careful. A girl 3 years ahead of mine said she was vice president of NHS (when she wasn't), and her acceptance to Duke got rescinded after they attempted to verify this.</p>
<p>Don't know the exact circumstances to why Duke checked on this, but the fact remains she didn't get to go because she lied on her app.</p>
