Admissions Advice

Could you please provide summer project ideas for rising junior interested in computer science?

I am a rising junior! In reviewing my extra-curricular profile, I found that I need additional tier 1/tier 2 type activities to enhance my chances of getting admitted at elite schools. Could you provide some ideas of projects I could work on this summer if I'm interested in majoring in computer science?

I heard that Stanford was doing an online course for ComputerScience credit that was open to High Schoolers. I think you just have to apply for 'why you should d it' and then they decide whether you can or not.

Try creating an app, or a short game. Maybe even make a website from scratch!
