How do Summer Camps help?

<p>I went to Concordia Language Villages for a month this summer to study high-school German. Would that benefit me because its unique to go there for my area.
Also, what programs have everyone else attended? Do schools prefer potential students to have attended their camps previously, or other academic camps previously?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>It certainly makes you unique. On your app you should explain why you chose to spend your summer learning German. How do you see yourself using that knowledge in your future? I`m sure you reasons will help you stand out in the applicant pool.</p>

<p>you went to Waldsee! (sorry for the spelling haha) i went to lac du bois hackensack, which is the french one, for three summers straight! i only went for two weeks though… anyway, all of my interviewers were familiar with it and/or they all seemed pretty interested in it. i don’t know how important it is, but i think it might help set you apart.
btw, did you go to international day this year? if you did, i was there too :)</p>

<p>Which i-tag? I was at the august one at the global summit. I was the only girl camper representing Waldsee. Yeah, everyone at Waldsee goes cause we host it. :). Were you at Swiss day in early august?</p>
