Hello everyone, I'm a junior and I'm looking for some unique extracurricular activities that will make my college applications stand out. I'm already involved in a few clubs, but I want to do something different and interesting. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Hi there! It's great to see that you're being proactive about your college applications. Unique extracurricular activities can definitely help you stand out. One idea I can suggest is to start a community service project or a local initiative that addresses a specific issue you're passionate about. For example, my child organized a neighborhood cleanup and tree planting event that made a positive impact on our community. Another option is to explore niche hobbies or skills, like learning a unique musical instrument, mastering a rare art form, or even participating in an unconventional sport. These activities can showcase your individuality and commitment to personal growth. Remember, colleges appreciate students who can demonstrate genuine passion and dedication in their chosen pursuits, so pick something that truly interests you. Best of luck!
