Summer College Courses

I really want to take one but do they REALLY make you look that much better on applications?

Hey! It depends on how prestigious the program is but even if it’s not the most prestigious but it’s at a university you want to go to, that shows demonstrated interest which colleges love to see. I’d definitely recommend it just for the college experience and get to test out a campus. If it’s expensive and will be hard to pay for then it’s not worth it but if you are able to pay for it I’d definitely say do it. Hope this helps!

Taking college courses in the summer isn't really much different from dual credit. Just make sure you're not paying too much if you join a summer program.
