Explanation:
you’re applying to selective colleges, chances are you’ll be asked to write about how you’ve spent your time outside of school.
While these questions are sometimes worded differently (see examples below in the FAQ), they generally sound something like this:
Tell us about one or more of your extracurricular activities.
In this post, I’ll share some practical tips for how to write about your extracurricular involvement in your college essays. But first, answers to a few commonly asked questions.
Q: Why do so many schools ask about extracurricular activities?
A: Simply put, they’re a great way to learn about the skills/qualities/values/experiences you’ve had that (and this is important) you haven’t already described in your personal statement.
Q: Do I really have to write it?
A: If a school asks for it, yes. If a school makes it optional, probably still write it. Why? If you don’t, it’s a missed opportunity. And also because you have this really great step-by-step guide in front of you that’s gonna’ show you how to crush it.
Q: What are some supplemental essay prompts that can be considered “extracurricular activity essays?”
Here are a few you might see:
“Briefly discuss the significance to you of the school or summer activity in which you have been most involved.” (Georgetown University)
“Please briefly elaborate on an extracurricular activity or work experience of particular significance to you.” (Amherst College)
“Please provide more details on your most meaningful commitment outside of the classroom while in high school and explain why it was meaningful. This could be related to an extracurricular activity, work, volunteering, an academic activity, family responsibility, or any other non-classroom activity.” (University of Florida)
