Does a university consider any extracurricular activity/achievement during the application filling?

Hello Anindita, *This is a very rare case. This depends from college to college. For example, Delhi University has a different policy of Extra Curricular Activities (ECA). This is a special quota for students who have excelled in some field of extra curricular activities. *ECA trials happen for those who have applied for this quota while registering. They are selected by an esteemed panel. *This is not that easy too. For example, if you are a talented dancer, the college asks if you have participated in inter state or national level competitions. Once you are selected you need to assure that you will definitely participate in dance-related activities/competitions in the future too and represent your college. * After this, you get a certain privilege as you get admission with the 'ECA Quota' I. e. a lower cut off, as compared to students from the general or any other category. # This is a special case of DU only because UG courses in DU are merit-based. Policies differ everywhere. # There is no chance of getting into entrance-based colleges/courses with any extracurricular activity or achievement, Anindita. All the best!
