So I am applying to a private university and like many other private universities, this one is affiliated with a religion. It is a private Christian university? The programs and education they offer seem great however I am Catholic. Catholics are Christians. At my school I have participated in Christian club at my school( many people from my Catholic Church attend this club,too). The bible is universal as well as the talks and hey it’s always good to be open minded. Should I say on the application that I have been involved in this club as well?
yes. it’s good to say for any college really….
Why not say so? As a Catholic, you ARE a Christian…I doubt anyone will track you down to find out just what kind. At any rate, most private Christian colleges will take anyone’s money so long as they qualify in other respects.
Depends on the extent it’s affiliated with a particular faith. Many schools have an archaic religious history but are open to students of all faiths (or none at all). Some are quite insistent you have to be of faith X – and they won’t take well to any discussion on that matter. Don’t try to join a club that doesn’t want to have you as a member in that case. Their loss.
Of course. If you’re applying to a Christian school, then by al means, mention your participation in the Christian club. You’ve got nothing to lose by doing it.
