<p>I have a friend who applied to a college and got her apps in and was all set. Then the other day she got an email saying her application wasnt complete, someone filled out another app with her name, clearly not by her( name not capitalized, no middle name and it says that it was completed the day before in like 5 minutes). Is this really bad for her? she talked to her guidance counselor and they had no idea what to do. She also called the school, not sure what they said though. Will the effect her at all? thanks</p>
<p>She needs to take this up with the college in question. They will have a way of working it out.</p>
<p>wow, interesting, i've never heard of anything like that. that's pretty messed up though.</p>
<p>That is why they ask for social security numbers on college applications.</p>
