What are some things to do to improve my resume during summer?
Answered

I'm a rising senior, so I was just wondering if there are any things that I can do during summer to get into my "reach" schools, or just improve my resume in general.

Thank you!

Start college applications, if you have reach schools consider applying early because admission rates are usually higher. Starting on essays and doing supplemental research for the schools you want to. Volunteering and interning are great ways to use your summer before senior year. Maybe visit some schools, but if you can't there are virtual options. There are also seminars and webinars.
