<p>What exactly defines community service? For instance, I often see in college decisions threads that community service is a separate category from extracurriculars. A lot of the clubs I take part in are "community service clubs" so is there a difference between the two when list my ec's on my application? (For instance, one of the clubs I am involved with regularly volunteers in hospitals.)</p>
<p>Use a few of the clubs that you are involved in that are based around community service and put them in the community service section. </p>
