report award received in another country

<p>I will go in Africa in a week and will spend my summer there. During my time there I will competing in some science and math competition so if I happen to win an award should I report it on my college application? I am asking this question because I don't know how they check the credibility of the award therefore I don't know if it will have any weight on my application.</p>

<p>Yes, you should. No reason not to.</p>

<p>" I am asking this question because I don’t know how they check " Simple answer: likely they won’t. They have too much other things in which to weigh.</p>

<p>you guys are right there is really no reason not. thanks a lot</p>
