What's an EC and what's an award?

<p>For programs that you had to apply to, did you guys list those as awards or EC's? Thanks ahead of time</p>

<p>I'm not sure if I'm understanding you correctly, but for example, I applied (and attended) to New Jersey's Governor School. I listed that under awards and accolades and not under extracirriculars.</p>

<p>I don't think it matters. Anyways they are going to read it and know what it is. I can see how it fits in both :D</p>

<p>yea johndoe, thats basically the kinda thing i meant
ok thanks, im just gonna list it under awards then, cuz im lacking in awards...</p>

<p>Some of the things I've done aren't exactly ecs, but I think that most of them fit well under awards because they're generally application/audition-only things. For example, I'm putting in a music festival I participated in under awards because I had to audition (and because it's silly to give all of the time information etc for a one-weekend thing).</p>

<p>what about significant things that you participate for maybe one day or two? say, addressing the United Nations.</p>

<p>absolutely give it..... shud boost ..btw cud u elaborate on UN thing ....</p>

<p>Were you selected for that or did you just go? (the UN thing)</p>
