Recommendation Forgery

Applying to College

<p>I'm a bit concerned for my friend who had her envelope sealed on the wrong envelope, so she transferred the contents into another envelope. It happened to be the counselor/school forms envelope... The signature on the envelope is very small and easily done by anyone. I'm worried that it could haunt her, but she did it and the only different is she added a curve to one extra letter... It's one letter of the first name and quick strokes of the five character last name, which is her signature for letter seals. The rest is practically the same. The counselor is away, which is why she forged the seal... the counselor would probably have laughed and given her the go ahead... she's a very modern, cool lady.</p>

<p>Is this a big deal? Should I warn her...? I kind of always look out for my friend, so any advice would be nice. We both want to get through the admissions process together successfully. lol</p>

<p>Wow. What an interesting situation! Glad to hear that you’re looking out for your friend though. If you really do think the counselor wouldn’t mind, I would tell your friend to let her know what she did. The truth is, it will likely go unnoticed assuming it’s good. But just in case, I think she should have some knowledge of what was done, that way, if she really is okay with it she can vouch for your friend if the college notices. That’s not something I’d consider risking with my GC, but she’s not much a fan of me anyway. </p>

Don’t forge signatures. Forgery is bad, mmkaay?</p>

<p>Yep, sounds like a plan. I told her, but she keeps saying that the college just won’t notice. Whatever, I’ll convince her to at least tell her. Thank you!</p>
