I’m currently a freshman at a CC planning on applying into Hass my junior year.
I am a business admin major and I know how crucial EC’s are to an application. There is a business club at my school that i’m involved in, I’m in the honors program, I have a part time job, and I have a 3.8+ GPA however I feel like I need more. I need something that will make me stand apart from the rest of the Hass applicants. Are there any ideas on good EC’s that will help build up my resume?
No one thing will do it, and they don’t necessarily need to be business related. And it’s definitely quality over quantity.
I’m a junior at Haas and can say some people have some really, really compelling extracurriculars before they got in. I don’t say the to scare you, but the competition to get in is real and you need to find ways to differentiate yourself.
Keep your grades up, find ways to be active in school and in your community, and write killer essays when the time comes.
