<p>I regret the decision to put down the hours of community service I have done on my common app. I was honest, and I put down about 120 community service hours. After I submitted the common app, I realized you guys have done a billion hours of community service…</p>
<p>Will that hurt my chance?</p>
<p>No.</p>
<p>It won’t</p>
<p>agreed. They care more about you having something you’re passionate about. It’s great if community service is your thing, but they want a diverse student body. Life would be no fun if we were all identical.</p>
<p>Ha. I have about 30, but I don’t think I even put those on my app.
Still got in as a regular (non-hooked) applicant.
Now the trouble is fulfilling my schools 90 CS hour graduation requirement.</p>
<p>I had around 150 hours and was accepted. Definitely won’t hurt you.</p>
