<p>I'm doing a one credit program at the local university this semester, which involves teaching elementary school kids with a hands on science lab. At the university I believe it's classified as an internship, but for college admission purposes does it count as an EC or a class, since it will be on my transcript.</p>
<p>It probably could be considered both. At my school Marching Band is a class. But all of our performances, parades, shows, etc. are after school and mostly off school property with a considerable time commitment outside of the 8 period school day. Thus, I would call it both a class and EC because I do the activity using my free time. If you interned with the students outside of your school day, you could say the same thing.</p>
