Summer Plans (EC/Academic - List)

Transfer Students

<p>I'm very curious as to what everyone's summer plans are. I don't mean go to the beach with my girlfriend/boyfriend or work at a hot dog stand.. I mean something clearly productive. Something that would count for EC when you apply for grad school.</p>

<p>I'm looking for a great volunteering opportunity at domestic violence support center for women... but that requires a year commitment and I won't be in socal for that long. <em>sigh</em></p>

<p>Oh.. by the way, the lady that works there directed me to this site: <a href="http://www.volunteermatch.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.volunteermatch.com&lt;/a> (for those who are interested in volunteering)</p>

<p>Post away!! I'm very excited to see what you guys are up to!</p>

<p>I thought grad school values pre-professional experience much more than EC's. Is this true?</p>

<p>I've been slowly trading away EC's for internship like employment.</p>

<p>You might be right... But I'm just wondering what I'm suppose to do over summer (besides working) that's productive.</p>

<p>I trolled around Grad School forums and some people were discussing going through Peace Corps (20 something month dedication - yikes!) It's pretty hardcore...</p>

<p>Well, I'll be running leadership workshops at some seminar for young students. I'm gonna try to get my NASD series 66 license too.</p>
