[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A normal summer job. And I'm not kidding.[/quote] This unfortunately can be faked. Not that the student wasn't there at all. But the level of commitment can be exaggerated. Some employers don't send W-2 forms for low-level jobs like working at a car wash, and the student made so little that they need not file a tax return. So anyone can easily exaggerate the number of weeks/year and number of hours/week worked. It is not possible to disprove, even if colleges wanted to.[/quote] So cynical. Don't let this process disrupt your child's life and yours like this.[/quote] Thank you. Very few people cheat the system this way, and yet we assume it’s rampant because we hear about the few cases of egregious lying. It is so corrosive.[/quote] I know. I'm fairly certain that the people reading these applications don't approach their task with the assumption that everyone is trying to pull a fast one.[/quote]
