Perhaps the concern for community service hours is a holdover from the old common application that had a specific section for community service. At that time, maybe there was a fear of leaving a section of the app blank. This is not an issue today with the new format.

FWIW, my daughter didn’t list any community service on her college application, but she didn’t apply to Harvard - she’s at Brown.
