<p>You don’t need a few more ECs. You have some outstanding ECs already. The fact that they’re focused on your horse isn’t a negative. No reason to try to decorate your application by adding additional activities that would take away time from what you’re enjoying. If you really want to do volunteer work, do so. But doing volunteer work isn’t required for college admissions.</p>
<p>If you want to give back to society, perhaps there’s something that you can do with horses that would allow you to do that. Perhaps, for instance, you could raise money for a horse rescue nonprofit, but only do this if you’re interested, not to look good.</p>
<p>I personally think that everyone – particularly in developed countries like the U.S. – should be giving back to society in some way, just because we are so fortunate, and so many people are in need. That’s my opinion, however, not a college requirement.</p>
