Sports / Community Service / Interest Groups

AI Thread Summary
When applying for university scholarships, the weightage given to extracurricular activities varies by scholarship. Sports activities may be prioritized differently compared to academic interests like science clubs, such as astronomy. Multiple club memberships can enhance an application by showcasing diverse interests and skills. While some scholarships may have specific minimum requirements for community service hours, this also depends on the individual scholarship criteria. Additionally, relevant vacation jobs can strengthen an application, particularly if they align with the scholarship's focus or the applicant's intended field of study. It is essential to review the specific requirements outlined in each scholarship's application for detailed guidance.

I would like to know how much weightage is taken into account for activities outside class, when applying for a university scholarship...

I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
