Does intern count as Extra curricular?

I started working as an intern at a non profit company. By intern I mean I help them with advertising and helping them with organizing events. I also earn service hours through it. Does this count as extra curricular? Also How STRONG is it exactly??

Yes, it counts as an extracurricular to colleges. Colleges want to see what you do in your free time, no matter what it is. I'd say moderately strong as it is an internship.

Yes, I would say it counts as an extracurricular, I think if you get an internship that aligns with your major it might help a little more, but this is great!
