Just wondering l am begining to apply to college =D looking for the best edge l can get and l surf was wondering if it is considered an extra curricular activity =) thank you.

If ur high school, (or the school district in general) counts surfing (or hula hooping for that matter) as a sanctioned activity, u can legitimately list it as an extra-curricular activity. Or, if u belong to a community/organized surf club outside of school, it is an extra-curricular activity (like department or recreation baseball or basketball).If it WASN''T a school sanctioned activity (club or varsity sport) or, an organized club or team, do not put it down as such, it is a HOBBY. Colleges can & will reject u for things that not true, or r 'half truths' in college applications.

John F is a silly stupid old man. It is definitely an extracirricular activity. Especially if you pay to take your surf class. By stating learning to surf in a class as an extracirricular activity it shows that you can undertake other learning experiences and activities while maintaining good grades in school. Colleges want well rounded students that can handle a busy lifestyle. Do not listen to John F.he looks really old.
