Verification - 2 Siblings - Same School

D2 is applying to same school D1 attends. I’m surprised that the school hasn’t requested verification docs be signed. Is it a common practice for a school to simply use the verification docs of the attending student to satisfy the verification, or would the applicant be treated separately?

The reason I’m asking is that there is no continuity between the verification requested for D1 and D2. Perhaps D2 simply isn’t in the running for admission and verification won’t be necessary if there is no admission.

Is verification done this early? I thought it was done later.

i guess that’s part of my question. Last year this school (a private LAC) asked for verification docs in Feb, but nothing so far this year for D2. Maybe schools usually do verification after FA package is communicated, and last year was unique.

Our verification request was posted immediately, and I haven’t filed the taxes yet. I think a certain percentage Tage are just random, so maybe on kid was picked and one wasn’t?

Verification is done by the colleges, and they choose who will be verified.

It is very possible that one of your kiddos could be verified while the other is not.
