UC Transfer App ECs: A Few Questions?

Hi, so I’m hung up on how to enter a few of my ECs on the UC application since they might fit more than one category.

For example, I’m a student body president, which at the CC I go to is a paid position and is treated like a job, though in the UC app it gives SBP as an example under EC rather than work experience.

I’ve also been a freelance photographer off/on since age 15 or so. I’ve been paid, but it’s flexible and hard to count as a matter of “hours per week.”

Any advice on this? Thanks :slight_smile:

They should go under jobs as the app says those are the ones where you got paid.

@Ohm888 Ok, thanks. Would you also happen to know how I should enter the “years after 12th” grade. Since most of my ECs are from the past 1-2 years at CC, and I graduated high school almost four years ago, would I put “12th plus 3” or 4, or is that supposed to mean I did the activity for three or four years?

This was just answered somewhere else. The UC said to calculate as years after — so 12th+2 means it started two years after 12th.

@Ohm888 Ok, thanks. Do you think I should write the length in the description, or just leave it?
