Hi everyone, I’m a high school senior and will be applying to college next year, and I was wondering if I could get everyone’s opinion concerning an issue I’ve encountered recently- does anyone know how impressive a summer online course (through Universities posting courses on EdX or Coursera) will look on a college application? Would this qualify as “having done something during my summer?” and prove, when coupled with other things (summer sports, working) that I didn’t simply sit around all summer? Thanks
I’m doing the same thing and these courses will definitely not be impressive and won’t really help your application, but it does prove you did something productive in the summer
