<p>ok, come on ppl.</p>
<p>How many hours voluneteered?
what is stuco?
and what are some colleges you are looking at?</p>
<p>i think stuco=student council.. i dont know why some schools use stuco instead of studco.. stu co reminds me of the word stupid for some reason.. haha.. </p>
<p>anyways, yeah, you're not really detailed in your stats. i can tell you right now that a lot of the students (i think i read on some stats page that it was about a quarter) applying to universities now are first generation to attend. i'm one myself. </p>
<p>some things that would somewhat shine from your thing, studco president -- if you can add meaning to it in essays or something, figure skating is pretty unique especially at a national level.. it's all about utilizing the stats u have in your essays, because it gives depth to the things you've supposedly accomplished...</p>
<p>we use "stu co", sounds a lot better and less awkward than "stud co" in my opinion</p>
<p>i wrote about my challenges as stu co prez when i was applying to NU, apparently it worked...</p>
