I have a quick question about ec’s in college, and I’m asking again here since I figure people who have actually dealt with transfer apps would know best.
Basically I’m at a research school I really don’t like, and I’m taking next semester off to work, train and do community theater to be prepared for my fall apps to theater programs. My question is now for the one semester I’m at this school how bad would it look if I had no ec’s? I just want to focus on my classes and trying to get a perfect gpa and also expand my repertoire of classics and plays and stuff on my own schedule. Most ec’s require you to pay and the expectation is for you to get more involved over the semesters but I don’t really see a point in investing myself in them for just one semester when I see more productive things for myself to do. Would it be bad not to have any ec’s cause I honestly feel like I’m forcing myself to do them now and they’re not any fun or enrichment at all but also college apps???
Thanks for any help, hearing some more experienced opinions would save me much stress and be much appreciated!
