			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by </i>: How would I List Activities on a College Resume if I am Transferring from One University to Another?</strong><br />
I am currently a freshman at a large university in Missouri, but have plans to transfer to one of a few universities in Chicago. I am involved in a couple of activities, including a sorority, and I would like to list both my high school and college activities on a resume for submission. How do I list college activities on a college resume if I am transferring? Any help would be great! <img src='http://k12reviews.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Maggie ????????</i><br/>They don&#8217;t care &#8211; once in college your entire highschool record is generally considered &#8220;your past&#8221; (ancient history) and not considered relevant in the slightest. Any college &#8220;activities&#8221; are your business, and they don&#8217;t care about them either (unless you&#8217;re on a sports team) &#8212; as college is about your &#8220;academic achievments/grades&#8221;, period.</p>
<p>Your social life is of no concern whatsoever.</p>
<p><strong>What do you think? Answer below!</strong></p>
