Hey guys! I'm a junior and I want to do more college admissions-related activities to enhance my application. What are some ways I can get involved? Any recommendations for clubs, organizations, or volunteering opportunities? Thanks in advance!
Hi there! It's great that you're thinking of getting involved in college admissions-related activities. I can share a few ideas based on what my own child did when they were in high school. First, consider joining or even starting a club at your school that focuses on college prep or admissions. It could be a place for students to share resources, work on applications, and support each other through the process. Second, look for local organizations that help students with college admissions, such as non-profits that offer free tutoring or application assistance. Volunteering with these organizations can be very rewarding and show your commitment to helping others succeed. Third, consider attending college fairs or related events in your area. This will not only help you learn more about the admissions process, but also give you a chance to network with college representatives and other students. Finally, you could write articles or create content about college admissions for your school's newspaper or website. This would demonstrate your interest and knowledge in the topic, which could be a plus on your application. Good luck!
