Referee email UCL

I am taking my A levels with a higher education institution from a third world country. The email domain they use for their teachers is different from their website domain and when looked up it comes up blank. The website domain is schoolname.sch.com and the teachers emails use @schoolname.com. Will this affect my application to UCL? If yes how can my referee to prove it’s legit?

i really can't imagine that would be a problem. like i doubt they pay that much attention to the email address itself & even if they are that meticulous/anal then they can look up a faculty directory on the main website or directly contact your institution to ask if the email is legit. i mean idk for sure, grain of salt, i'm just a random american teenager, but my referee also had a nonstandard email ending and i haven't had any problems.

Why not ask UCAS direct? Do provide your school's website address in your email to UCAS. Also request your teacher may clarify this in the reference. Good luck.
