Are college essays supposed to be double spaced?
The entire paper needs to be double-spaced, including the student and course information at the top. Do not included extra spacing between paragraphs. The font needs to be 12-point, Times New Roman throughout the entire essay with no bolding or underlining, including the title and works cited page.
How do colleges tell if you are lying?
Major awards can be verified by a simple google search. Obviously, lying about courses or grades would be plain stupid, since colleges will receive your transcript directly from your school. Same goes for self-reported SAT/ACT/AP test scores – they will be matched with the official score reports.
Does Uscis know everything about you?
The simple answer, of course, is that it is impossible to know whether USCIS knows if an applicant for a green card or for naturalization is lying to them. The safe assumption is that they DO know everything about you and that, if you lie in the interview, you will be caught. Do not ever lie to the immigration service.
What happens if you lie to immigration?
Lying to an immigration officer can have extreme consequences including permanent inadmissibility, deportability, and not being allowed to apply for U.S. citizenship. Any person seeking a benefit under U.S. immigration law—a visa, permanent residency (a “green card”), or citizenship—must submit a written application.
Should I specify my race on a job application?
No matter what, NO ONE should ever be looking at your demographic information prior to selecting you for an interview, interviewing you, or hiring you. Your answers to these demographic questions (race, gender, age, etc.) are kept separate from the rest of the application.
Is it necessary to fill in your race on a form?
If you’ve applied for any kind of an academic job, you’ve seen it: the form that asks you to disclose your gender, race, and, if applicable, disability. And you’ve probably taken note of the assurances that your reply is optional, it’s confidential, and it will have no influence on the hiring process.
Why do applications ask if Hispanic or Latino?
We ask a question about whether a person is of Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin to create statistics about this ethnic group. Local, state, tribal, and federal programs use these data, and they are critical factors in the basic research behind numerous policies, particularly for civil rights.
