What types of EC goes into which part of the UC application?

<p>I'm having trouble determining where my EC's go since the UC application has different sections for different kinds of ECs. Can you give me an brief explanation (but more indept than the application does) on what each section wants? Thanks.</p>

<p>The sections are: Educational Preparation Programs, Volunteer & Community Service, and Extracurricular Activities</p>

<p>For example: is Key Club (its a national organization that most schools have a charter for that helps students do community service) community service or extracurricular activity?</p>

<p>Extra Curricular Activities:</p>

<p>Sports
Debate
Mock Trial
MUN
NHS-?- I’d put it under EC’s, even though they do tutoring
Scouting, except for the Eagle project</p>

<p>Volunteer and Community Service:</p>

<p>Key Club
Scouting Eagle project
Volunteer work, raising money, etc.</p>

<p>I think different applicants will put some of the same ‘outside the classroom’ stuff in different sections. I think the most important thing is to make sure you have entered it somewhere on the application. </p>

<p>Tip: it doesn’t matter the ORDER you list your CS and EC’s. The UC application website will put them in the order according to the grades that you list your participation when you go to save/submit.</p>
