Exactly how important are your activities?

I'm assuming, and correct me if I'm wrong, that you're putting together a resume to ask for recommendations? If this is the case, you can certainly include hobbies.

Some schools have a place to put hobbies/interests on recruitment application forms, but I don't know why someone who is going into their senior year would be worried about/filling that out now.

This would not be unusual for competitive recruitments, and is actually a pretty good idea.

It's not unusual for a girl entering her senior year to already be filling out the recruitment application (at least a) year in advance?

I mean... it's one thing to be mindful of it, or check it out so you know what to do, but... campuses accept applications that far in advance? I mean, at this point, she probably hasn't received an acceptance letter to whatever college she intends to go to yet.

Getting recs together I understand (although obviously you'd want to KNOW what school you're going to, first), but... filling out the application?
