Chance/ Community Service for Ivy Leagues

<p>I am going to be a Senior and have maintained all A's with the excepton of 3 B's. SAT and ACT scores are on the way. I am enrolled in APs and have been since sophomore year. I going into my 4th year of Spanish(max we can take at my school) and I am currently involved in alot of various activities in my community, school, and church. I am Vice president of a young mens organization, I student tutor kids inside and outside of school, I'm captain of the golf team, I am active in helping run a youth leadership program at my church and I'm a member of the National Honor Society. I do have an opportunity to be president of National Honor Society but I'm not sure if my class load and being president, along with the other community services things I do, will be too much (Enrolled in 4 AP's). A friend and family member told me, who both went to Ivy Leagues, that I should fous all of my energy into one community service idea and not be involved in alot of different ones. So my questions are: Do Ivy Leagues like to see students that are heavily involved with alot of various community service projects or would they rather see a student focus their efforts into one project? Lastly do I need to take the offer of being NHS president if I have all these other community service things that I do?</p>

<p>Harvard, along with lots of other top schools, like to see “well rounded” students; however, they also like to see these “well rounded” students further focused/exceptional in one or two areas. Find your favorite activity where you are most passionate, and spend your time learning and improving there. You don’t want to get spread thin with too many different things!</p>
