US schools love them. It falls under the extra curricular activity category. For really competitive schools, this is one of those things that can set you apart. Lots of kids can join a varsity sports team at their high school. An olympiad medal shows you're actually good and committed, instead of simply joining to pad your resume.

In the US? Certainly. It sets you apart.
