Hi guys! I’m currently a sophomore in high school and I started taking violin lessons about a month ago to improve my skills. Also I’m planning on continuing Chinese at a local college or taking it online outside of school. These do not count for language credits but I just want to continue learning Chinese because I love the language and my school won’t be offering it next year. Or would learning a new language count? Do both of these count as extracurriculars?
Yes definitely.
ECs are anything you do outside of class. For top colleges, add an expectation of recognized excellence or impact in your chosen activities.
Yes, definitely…and if you can get any “certification” or grades or test results in Chinese all the better
