Hey!
My goal is too get into stanford and I currently have a 3.9 unweighted. I was wondering if someone could tell me if my EC’s are good enough for Stanford or any Ivy league?
EC’s:
2 Varsity sports - Lacrosse and Tennis
Tennis Captain
President of two clubs- DECA and HOSA
State president of one club - HOSA
Attempting next year to get to be National president of HOSA
Volunteering for an non profit which gives aprox. 500 hrs of community service per year and lets me be a councillor of a summer camp
Have two companies with employees
Starting a non profit
Make and perform music
Volunteer abroad every summer
Shadow a surgeon at a hospital
Also i forgot to add that I am also a documentary maker
Yes, possibly. Good enough to have a decent shot, not good enough for admission to Stanford or an ivy to be likely.
@usualhopeful what would you say i need to do in order to have a good chance for an Ivy
I would focus on being the national president of HOSA or building your two companies before starting a non-profit It seems like you are trying too hard to find titles (e.g., a documentary maker, owner (?) of two companies, founder of a non-profit, etc.) and it dilutes the value of each EC. Any one of these things alone, done in a more concentrated manner, would seem to carry more weight than just trying to start another entity. Go for quality over quantity.
@pianoman01 thank you for the feedback! I will make sure i do quality over quantity! Thanks for the advice!
