Should I include HS ECS in transfer application?
Answered

I’ve only been in college one semester and have 2 extracurriculars to show for it. Should I include my high school ones? Or only the most prominent high school ones like NHS and leave off 4 year varsity captain.

Hi @Catlover77!

Since the emphasis is on your college activities, you'll want to list those first. But you can mention high school extracurriculars, especially since you've only been in college one semester.

Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

It might be beneficial to include your high school activities as well since you have only been in college for one semester.
