No, it is not at all necessary. I was accepted EA to the Boston College Honors Program and Georgetown University (Jesuit schools that really stress community involvement) with NO community service whatsoever. However, I did have extensive work experience. I think that you need to have one of the two, at the very least, and excel in it.
