Is starting a new EC in senior year going to help?

<p>Since during my junior year I was not able to engage in the same EC that I did in my previous school. However I managed to still pursue what I like. However I still think its not enough and I want to learn more outside of school. So I would like to start one club and join varsity sport because in my previous school I was in varsity swimming but this new school that I am attending has no swim team. Will this help my resume look better?</p>

<p>It probably won’t look better. If you start a club exclusively for seniors, perhaps that will look good.</p>

<p>@AnnieBeats‌ what if I already did the extracurricular activity outside of the school, but I decided to bring it to the school during my senior year? </p>

<p>Well, that should be fine. Just make sure you explain that and then, it would count as leadership</p>

<p>What will look best is if you do something because you care about it and want to have fun, not because it looks good. If you’re creating a club, you want to be creating something that will outlast you, not collapse on your departure.</p>

<p>ECs outside school count. Clubs? A last minute high school club won’t show vision, responsibility and impact the way some serious, focused volunteering or a summer job can. Get activated. Use this summer wisely and continue those into next fall if you can. </p>

<p>You have to take an open look at all you did do. This isn’t just about what happens inside the hs. </p>
