Hi! I was wondering if colleges would care how long I’ve been part of a club or when I joined? Most of the clubs I joined freshman year I ended up not liking so I dropped them. I stuck with some sophomore year clubs and now in junior year, I’m finding more opportunities to get involved outside of school. Do they care that I’m involved with newer clubs/opportunities now that I wasn’t involved with in freshman year? How does it look?
2-4 years in the same activity in or out of school.
Activities you start in junior year look like you suddenly realized “Yikes, I need things to put on my college app!!” Activities started in junior year are still better than not having activities at all, but not nearly as strong as a comparable student who showed more commitment.
