<p>I've ran Cross Country for 4 years but it has been on the "JV" team. However our school only has Track and Cross Country listed as varsity sports(you get a letter and all). Should I leave the EC listed as Varsity XC and Track or say "Varsity Cross Country(ran for the JV team)"?
Thanks
Not sure if this is the right place for this thread </p>
<p>You didn’t achieve Varsity status and your proposal is too confusing. Say: 4 years JV Cross Country Which is the most honest and direct, BTW.</p>
<p>You are overthinking the whole thing. The Common App has pull down menus, check boxes and text boxes to complete for each EC. If you ran JV Track, select ATHLETICS JV/VARSITY (there is no difference on the Common App), then select CROSS COUNTRY.</p>
