president vs. co-president?

Guys, quick, stupid question.

I am one of three presidents of the Art Club at my school. We decided not to denote offices for each of us but instead to all be presidents. The club advisor was totally cool with this.

I don’t want to lie on my apps, but I would really like to just put President and not Co-President on my application, especially since I already marked that I am the Co-Captain of my sport. I feel like having two "Co"s on there is negative.

Am I being petty and stupid?

Also, we are not applying to any of the same schools, except ONE, which happens to be on the common app so I can’t edit it just for that one school. Will it raise red flags to see two applicants from the same school both marking President of the Art Club?
