USC, community service, hope you guys could help please

<p>does USC and other colleges verify community service hours? not just for admissions alone but what about for SCHOLARSHIPs? </p>

<p>want to know beforehand so i can get the stuff they need to verify it :)</p>

<p>also i got a call from USC telling me to apply to the Norman Topping Scholarship and how i should be proud or something. They said they didn't call based on financial need, but other reasons. It's for people who's entering USC (been accepted) and has community awareness.</p>

<p>So is this a good sign? because i haven't been accepted yet, i won't know until march </p>

<p>thanks a lot guys!</p>
