<p>Hey guys.
I am in this dilemma which I do not know what I should do. Right now, I know a girl in my college who is applying for transfer application and she sent out fake recommendations. She told me that she created new fake teacher email ( of course, she couldn't make a new fake school email so she just created a new yahoo email). She made and everything and she just wrote her own recommendation.</p>
<p>How likely is this for her to get caught? What should I do to tell her?
Te thing I am worried is the Fake teacher email. because no teacher would give out personal email, they normally have their college email right ? So if she still decide to not withdraw, then are the people who gonna read her application gonna check with the school ?</p>
<p>I mean, will she get expelled and stuff? /
has this happened before ? Please give me advice,
This is quite risky</p>
<p>There’s a 99% chance she will get caught. Many colleges will check with the applicant’s current schools to confirm what the applicant wrote on the common app. When the schools find that the teacher is not actually a teacher who works at the school (which they could find using a simple google search), they will instantly realize she faked the recommendation. The case would be even worse if she faked the professor’s/teacher’s name. Either way, your friend will and should suffer severe consequences. Tell you’re friend to, if she hasn’t submitted the application, immediately take back the recommendations if possible. If not, she should contact the school immediately, tell them what happened, and she will most likely have to withdraw the application. I’m no expert, but there is a small chance she might even fact legal action, especially if she pretended to be a real professor. I hope you knock some sense into your friend.</p>
<p>She’s toast, as she should be.</p>
<p>@Viacollege: thank you so much for the advice. I will do what u said immediatelyyy… Also, she sent the recommendation envelopes already, but they colleges have not look at the application until after the deadline right ? </p>
<p>So I should just tell her to call the colleges saying that she wants to withdraw the application. but does she have to explain it as well ?.. like saying specifically that she faked the recommendation ?? lmao</p>
<p>Horrible idea.
Caught : 0 chance of going to that school. And schools can talk…</p>
<p>You should just withdraw all applications from any of the colleges the fake applications were sent to. That *might *save your bacon if the schools have not looked at them yet. Otherwise there is a risk of being expelled at the current school as well.</p>
