Summer Tips for Rising Seniors

Summer is here, and it's the perfect time to get a head start on enhancing your college admissions profile!

Here are some tips to make the most of your summer and stand out when applying to colleges:

It helps you get a feel for the campus environment, make informed decisions when applying, and can provide valuable insights for writing your “why us” essay that some colleges require. Some colleges even take ‘demonstrated interest’ into account when making admission decisions so don’t forget to register for any events you attend.

Reflect on your experiences, values, and personal growth. Crafting a compelling essay takes time, so start early and seek feedback from teachers, counselors, family, friends or anyone willing to help.

Balance is the key!

Remember, the key is to find a balance between pursuing your passions and enjoying your summer break. Don't forget to take some time for self-care and relaxation too!
