Important Things You Can Do This Summer To Prepare For College.

• Retake classes to improve your GPA

• Secure shadowing experiences (especially if you are majoring in a STEM discipline!)

• Get as many *meaningful community service hours as you can! (Hopefully,  this is a passion project that you started as a freshman!) *something that you care about–possibly related to your future major/career.

• Check out the Common App prompts and complete your personal statement! (They haven’t changed the questions in years! They temporarily added one regarding COVID) 

• Visit prospective colleges! Check out your specific program.

• Read books/listen to podcasts that interest you (Colleges will ask you about this!)
