What is varsity?


Question Posted Monday December 29 2008, 11:30 pm

17/f

I am currently filling out university applications. For extra-curricular activities I am required to fill in a portion about sports. If I played volleyball during one of my high school years, do I select "varsity" as my position? Is the team necessarily varsity? My other options include captain (which I was not), member, etc. Which should I select? I am from Canada and applying to a Canadian university, it is not often that the term varsity is used here. Thanks!

i would select varsity. technically, if you were on the sole team (a.k.a. there was no junior-varsity or c team), you played varsity.
besides if you can't find any other title that fits you, just go with that. in the end, the college is going to say "oh, look. she was involved in this, this, this and volleyball." not "i wonder if she was really on varsity..." :)

From wikipedia:varsity sports teams are the principal athletic teams representing a college, university, high school or other secondary school. Such teams compete against the principal athletic teams at other colleges/universities, or in the case of secondary schools, against other secondary schools.
