All the ECs that you have done… community service/ receiving awards/ working somewhere/ volunteering etc…
When you try to tell the college that you did all those things, do you write a list of it on the app? Or do you include all this in the essay? Is there a certain spot on the app that says “List ECs”… I also wonder if the highschools sends to the college that you actually did participate in these ECs…
<p>Ya, they ask you what you do during your summers and clubs you join. You can write about the ECs you are truly passionate about and go into detail with them through that option. </p>
<p>Check out some applications from university or the commonapp and you will know what I am talking about</p>
<p>there is a spot on the common app to list ECs, awards, etc. on the common app, this is also a short essay on your most meaningful activity. and a space for add'l info (you can put whatever you think will help you app).
your high school does not send anything to colleges, verifying that you did/won anything. see this thread, on lying on apps:
