<p>My cousin is the manager of a pharmacy. I am planning on volunteering at his pharmacy for 8 hours per day for few weeks. Can I put this as community service hours? Thanks!!</p>
<p>College applications don’t ask about volunteer hours.
If you’re asking whether it will count toward some high school graduation requirement, that depends on your school.</p>
<p>Volunteering is a major extra curricular of mine. Why wouldn’t they care?</p>
<p>Volunteer hours are fine on an app- but it’s a stretch to call this community service. This sounds like work, even if unpaid. Volunteering is more than just not getting money for whatever it is. The notion is to be doing some good for someone or some group.</p>

They care about all types of extracurriculars, not just volunteering. They don’t ask about volunteering specifically. </p>
<p>It sounds like you’'re doing an externship (job shadowing).</p>
