Will Stanford Call

<p>

I meant if they ask me to provide a phone number I don’t want them questioning him about the death of his mom.

They will not ask you for a phone number to call.</p>

<p>

However, if none of your teachers or counselor mention this story in their recs, Stanford will get suspicious and ask you to verify.

No they won’t get suspicious. It’s very possible that the teachers don’t know what goes on in his life outside of school.</p>

<p>Just don’t worry about it. They won’t ask for a phone number and they will not call. They only verify your verifiable ECs such as first place in USAMO or something like that, and they only randomly do it to 5% of the applicants.</p>
