What is the approval process for service hours?
- Verification: Once your service hours are verified, they become eligible for review and approval.
- Review Order:Service hours are reviewed in batches based on your class year:
- Seniors
- Juniors
- Sophomores
- Freshmen
- Review Timing:
- Service hours verified during the semester will be reviewed for approval in the same semester.
- Service hours verified during the summer will be reviewed in the fall semester.
- Processing Time: Due to the high volume of college application activity in the fall and early spring, please allow several weeks for your service hours to be reviewed and approved.
What if my hours are rejected?
Service hours are reviewed and approved only for the volunteer service recognition program (graduation service cord). If your hours are rejected due to unmet criteria (e.g., submission deadlines, non-qualifying community service), you can and should still self-report these hours on your college applications. Note that Walton does not send service transcripts to colleges. When a MobileServe submission is rejected, an explanatory note is always included.
