Is this extracurricular?

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

<p>On the common app they have foreign language and art as options as an extracurricular activity. Two questions.
1. If I took 4 years of Spanish class can it be considered extracurricular since it is not mandatory?
2. If I took a digital art class would I be able to list it as an extracurricular?</p>

<p>Both classes have been taken at my high school during regular class hours, however, the classes are not mandatory and I could have easily dropped them to get out of school earlier.</p>

<p>I don’t think Spanish or digital art would count since it is a class/school credit. Therefore, it doesn’t really quality as an extracurricular which generally refers to activities you do outside of your normal classes.</p>
