Activities and Awards Workshee
In addition to courses, grades, and test scores, we want to know how you spend your time outside of class. Before you get started on this section, you should brainstorm: Were or are you involved in clubs, athletics, band? Do you work or volunteer? Do you have family responsibilities caring for siblings or other family members? Keep in mind, your activities don’t necessarily need to be through organized, school-sponsored programs. • There is no limit per category. You can list up to 20 total activities and awards. • You should describe the activity and your role and avoid using acronyms. • If you did not have the time/opportunity to participate in school/community activities or volunteer/paid employment, it is helpful to application readers to know why. • Explain how else you used your time, and if it was a choice or a requirement (for example: caring for siblings and/ or children, eldercare, commitment to doing homework, research projects, full-time employment, etc.)
