If you can find a way to settle the bet, I bet they don't do that.

The closest thing I can think of is contacting people in the admissions department, but I can't think of a cheap way to induce them to answer truthfully.

I'm also willing to consider humans part of the 'system', and so having that 'file' be "Bob recognized this applicant's name" would be enough for my purposes. But I don't know how much human attention their applicants get, and at what parts.
