Physical therapy as an EC?

Applying to College
1

<p>I’m wondering if I should list that I go to PT every week duirng the summer under the EC section on an app. It does take up time, and I think it’s important for colleges to know. or should i put this under additional info?</p>

<p>If you go to PT for treatment, that is NOT an EC. However, if you go to volunteer or work, then it is.</p>

<p>I do both. I’m a peer mentor and I go for treatment. Should the treatment part be under additional info?</p>

<p>Treatment doesn’t count as an activity- just like going to several doctors appointments in a week doesn’t count as an activity. List the peer mentoring hours.</p>

<p>ok, thanks for the help</p>

<p>You should list it, but not under EC’s. If it’s something you’ve had to overcome, it should go under additional info.</p>

<p>@gator yeah, I have a physical disability which i think qualifies as something i’ve had to overcome. thanks for the insight</p>
