<p>At first I was thinking about writing something about an experience that had something to do with one of my EC's, but then I thought of something different that wasn't represented elsewhere. This is obviously for the common app and not the supplement.</p>
<p>Not sure about the common app since I didn’t apply to any schools that used it, but I applied to Tech last year and was accepted(and am here now) and wrote in my essay about being in color guard and what that has given me as a person. If you are really passionate about it I think thats what matters most, besides you don’t get much space to explain your ECs(unless the common app gives you extra or something) so if you really want to show how one has affected your life and would make you a great Tech student then I think it would work fine. Best of luck!</p>
