How to strengthen my application

Hi! So, I'm a rising junior and I want to strengthen my college application. I have a 3.8 GPA, I have leadership roles, I have a 2 passion projects I'm working on. But I don't know what else to do to stand out/strengthen my application. My school doesn't offer AP course but I will be taking dual enrollment. What else can I do?

Good afternoon!

I would work on community engagement and helping voluteer in your local community. I would find some place where you have similar beliefs, or a place that correlates to a career field you would like to pursue.

Another suggestion would be taking on an internship to show deep interest in a future career, while also validating that it is the field you would like to pursue.

Make sure you also have a club you stuck to for 3-4 years to show commitment.

Kind regards.
