<p>So now that this summer is over, I'm starting to think of what I may want to do next summer. I'm a junior now, so next summer I'll be looking at colleges and whatnot, but I can easily just schedule that around my summer plans. This summer I worked at my local library, as I do year round. But next year I want to do something that looks more impressive to colleges. I live about 20 minutes from New York City, so something at Columbia or NYU are the most convenient for me. I'm not sure what I'm interested in yet...probably political science, law, journalism, something like that rather than math or science. But if I don't do that then I want to be a CIT at a local camp, and then set myself up for a counselor job every summer when I get home from college if I can't find an internship/need a paying job. So does anyone have any information on programs at colleges preferably within a plausible radius of NYC? Or if there are any programs during the year? Thank you so much!</p>
<p>Also what is the average length of a program at a college?</p>
