Hey everyone, I've been actively participating in my school's choir for the past few years, and I'm wondering if that counts as an extracurricular activity when it comes to college applications? Does being part of a fine arts program make a difference, or should I focus on other things to boost my application?
Hi there! Absolutely, participating in your school's choir can definitely be considered as an extracurricular activity on your college applications. Colleges appreciate students who are passionate about their activities and have shown dedication to them over time.
Being part of a fine arts program does make a difference, as it highlights your commitment to the arts and showcases your talents in that area. However, it's also important to maintain a well-rounded application, so you may want to consider being involved in other activities as well.
I think you should definitely mention your choir involvement in your application.
Good luck with your applications, and I hope this helps you make the most of your choir experience!
