No Awards/Honors

<p>I have no awards to put on my common app, but I was thinking about applying to some top schools. What should I do? I was accepted to NHS amd SHS, but I'm not sure if those would count for honor.</p>

<p>Same question. Anyone know if NHS is an honor?</p>

<p>The Common App site states that you should list NHS as a school honor.</p>

<p>So would that go under the Honors section or what</p>

<p>Yes, it would go under the honors/awards section</p>

<p>I know of people who were accepted to top schools with no awards or only minor awards. And yes, NHS does count as an honor.</p>

<p>How do colleges know you are being truthful about your awards? I feel like you could easily put something down you never won and they would never know.</p>

<p>The colleges verify the information you provide on the commonapp with your high school.</p>
