Most Activities Lists are boring — even when the student isn't.
Without strategic framing, even the most impressive activities can go unnoticed.
In this live session with a former Duke admissions officer, you'll learn how to:
- Choose extracurriculars that align with your application theme and reveal who you are
- Frame each activity in a way that grabs—and holds—an admissions officer’s attention
- Show real impact and leadership, even in activities that seem “ordinary”
- Avoid the common mistakes that cause strong applicants to blend in
Our speaker will also answer your questions LIVE throughout the presentation!
