[quote=Anonymous]Post Varsity Blues, I’m sure they do— or have the interns do it.  Especially if the application seems off or the activity I’d impressive enough that it could sway admissions one way
or another. I doubt anYones chEcking uP on Latin Honor Society. But if your kid is claiming national level honors or ranking or recognition in something, and none of the recs mention it, and it isn’t in the essay, they might well check behind her

Just be honest. Cautionary tale. My  best friend from law school was rested for public indecency as a Hs senior/minor— sex in a car in a public place  with her boyfriend. Had it sealed because she wa a minor and didn’t report it to her college or law school. She trUthfuLly reported it on her Bar application which cauught the discrepancy.  She had to go back to her Undergrad college and formally petition to amend her college application.  Appeared before an honor committee at age 25, etc. Then, petition the law school to amend that application. Same deal, except in from of her current professors.  Then have an additional character and fitness interview with the Bar. All to discuss having sex in public with her boyfriend at 17.

Bars pull college applications. I’m sure they get pull for other licensing, for security clearances, etc. it’s not worth it. [/quote]
