I just recently received a letter saying I've been nominated to be a Delegate representing my high school and state, but I was wondering if it was ACTUALLY legit? I've done a bit of research on it, and it seems absurd to pay almost $1K for a pay-to-play kind of thing. I do plan to head into medical school, but will this actually help me when it comes to my college applications? Please let me know.
P.S. I'm a freshman in high school.
So it is a legit organization, as in like, you're not getting scammed out of thousands of dollars or anything, but I don't think many people actually get any kind of tangible benefit out of it. It might boost your college applications a bit, but I don't think it's gonna help enough to make paying a thousand bucks worth it.
