I work with disabled students at my school’s Best Buddies club, though none of them are deaf or mute, I still want to try to learn sign language on my own.
If after a year or two of hard work learning sign language, and I’m able to create conversations and use it fluently in real life, do you think this will impress the colleges when I list it down on my college app?
Thanks.

Yes, that’s good for your college app because that shows you can do something extra that other students or people can’t do. Your also fluent and that’s even better
:]
Being able to list another language is always something good. If you are proficient in it enough, then retaking a class (if it’s offered) in college is an ensured A and will help better refine your skills also. It’s a great language to know, none the less.
YES!!! It would look good, for 2 reasons #1 being its the language credit and that it deals with people who are deaf and hard of hearing…they see compassion! #2 It’s very rare and not a commen langage people take such as french or spanish!! 🙂 And it’s easy to learn. 🙂 Good luck!
