The summer is an important time for all students. Colleges
are looking for well-rounded
students who use their time wisely. Colleges not only evaluate
what students accomplish from September through June but also
how productive the summer efforts are as well. There are many
opportunities to take advantage of in the summer that are not
only academic. There are international, wilderness, sports,
service and research programs, all of which will lead to a more
meaningful summer experience.
Many colleges and universities host programs during the
summer as well as many private secondary schools throughout the
country. The College Guidance Office has information on many of
these programs. There are also some useful resource books
available such as Summer Opportunities for Kids and Teenagers
by Peterson’s Publishing and A Taste of College by
College Bound Communications, Inc. The College Guidance Office
also receives hundreds of advertisements regarding summer
programs from all over the United States. This information can
be found in the College Guidance Office.
