Volunteering Question

Applying to College
1

<p>This might sound like a stupid question, but bear with me.</p>

<p>My high school requires 10 hours of community service per year. I automatically receive approx. 20 hours from Band, so I never bother to submit any community service forms other than Band (they are a pain to fill out, and I never saw any point in submitting more forms). I do more volunteering than this, of course, but I've never reported these services to my school.</p>

<p>My question is, when I apply to colleges, can I only list the community service activities that I submitted to my HS? Or, can I include all of the other projects that I haven't informed my school of?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You can include everything you did.</p>

<p>Yes, you can include everything. Your school probably won't submit anything regarding your community service, and even if they do, colleges won't make anything of the discrepancy</p>
