It may only be March, but summer break will be here before you know it, and students need to have a solid plan for how to spend their time off from school.

Colleges like to see what students are doing inside and outside of the classroom, including how students spend their summer breaks. Colleges want to see students engaging in their core interests and continuing their current activities even when school isn’t in session.

For many students this can include securing a summer job or internship related to their interests, continuing a club or after school activity, or attending a summer program. Students should start planning their summer as soon as possible, especially if they’d like to attend a summer program, as many application deadlines are as early as March.

The summer is also a good time for rising high school seniors to get a head start on their application essays in addition to their other summer activities.

 

Starting to plan early for the summer can seem daunting, but there are a number of resources out there to help you decide the most productive way to spend your summer break.
