Pre-College Issues Summer Programs

I’m a rising junior and I’ve just applied for the Girls Who Code summer program. How good does it look on college apps?

Over the years, I’ve learned to code in various languages and have done a comp sci related internship my freshman year. I’ve also taken college classes in coding at the level of AP Comp Sci and a lot more technology related activities inside and outside of school.

Will the program simply be just another thing on my resume or is it something viewed favorably by admission offices?

P/S: Good luck to all of us who applied! :slight_smile:

I would also like to know how good it looks on college apps.

It seems to be viewed pretty favorably, especially if you want to go into CS. You can use it in your college essays.

Does anyone think this topic’ll be seen as cliche in a college essay? This program is growing rapidly so there must be tons of girls applying to CS majors…
