Community Service?

<p>I have a question which regards my school’s community service clubs.
My school’s Key Club does community service every Saturday, usually involving volunteering at festivals/litter removal/etc.
I was wondering if these community service hours can be placed onto college admissions?
Do these hours help my chances of getting into a UC?</p>

<p>I really need to find out because applications to the club are due next Friday and I am wondering if it is worth my time to spend Saturdays doing community service instead of studying/working.</p>

<p>On the UC Application, there should be a section where you list the types of community service you have done and how many hours of service you have performed.</p>

<p>Here's some help with making your EC's stand out:</p>
