As the title says, should I include my history on the Trump campaign on my college apps to ivies and other top 20s? I am majoring in international relations and therefore politics and other policy related clubs are a huge part of my app.
I think it would be relevant. Just be careful with your language. Most college campuses are very liberal leaning so try to be as bipartisan as possible.
Won’t hurt. You’d be surprised how many kids express an interest in poli sci and never got involved in local campaign work.
Just understand the qualities/traits top colleges want to see come through in you app/supp and the essay. It shouldn’t just be, “I did this and then I did that.” Or your political certainties. (Better to show openness.)
It should be show, not just tell.
I think it is suicidal.
