My special interest recommender asked me to send her any information that I would like for her to highlight and also get to know what I do outside of this activity, so she can really capture me as a person. What information should I send her? The activity is a program that works with the Department of Education. We usually have conferences like 10 times a year. We help to build educational programs for students and discuss ways we can support students’ mental health in the classroom.
That’s a cool EC. I think this is a tricky request because you really don’t want them to go too far afield. If you have other ECs in the mental health or education arena, that might be something to share. Also, do you plan to major in something related or have a related career aspiration? Maybe also your GPA and information about your school.
