Junior year extracurriculars
Answered

it's summer and while I am occupied doing summer school to get early credit for senior year next year, I feel as if i need to do more in terms of extracurriculars. I am a little confused on what scholarships do and how they work since I know this website offer a few as well. Also I'm thinking about majoring in psychology so if you know of any good opportunities or have any good advice in general that would help too! thanks

hello! if you want to, you can get a job! you can (a) make money & save up for college, and (b) having a job can look good on a college application! if you have time, you could possibly do some volunteering as well! however, if it is the summer before your senior year, i do recommend spending time working on your college essay(s), figuring out what colleges you'll be applying to, doing any last minute campus visits, etc. for colleges. don't stress out about it!
