Check off "Will continue in college" if EC is for highschool only?

Applying to College

<p>When filling out the EC section of the common app, should I check off the "Do you plan to participate in college?" if it's a high-school activity?
Like science bowl or math club or forensics. </p>

<p>I mean, I'll be looking into science, math, and debate activities in college but it won't be those activities specifically because they won't be offered in college. So going by the strict definition, I'll be checking nothing off for "will continue" but going by a general interpretation, I'd check off most everything since I am going to continue pursuing math, science, etc. activities...</p>

<p>Yes…</p>

<p>For things like that I put an asterisk in the box and wrote “nearest college-level equivalent” at the bottom of the page. That may be overkill, but if you want to be 100% clear…</p>

<p>No room for asterisks on the online common app…</p>

<p>Oh, good point. I sent a print copy, so it wasn’t an issue.</p>

<p>What should I put for varsity sports? I plan on doing intramural, or just a club in college.</p>

<p>You list the sport, and then check that you intend to pursue it. They’ll know that, unless you’re a recruited athlete, it may not be on the varsity level.</p>
