Hel
elpful H Hints ts
Don’t shortchange yourself! Think of everything you’ve done inside and
- utside of HPC that the reader might want to know and include them in your
vitae—high school years only.
Depth, diversity, and leadership are key components of the selection
- process. Doing a few things passionately for a sustained period of time,
rather than many things inconsistently will enhance your profile. Quality over quantity.
Positions of leadership reflect most beneficially on your character and
- commitment. It means you care enough about the program to want to play a
major role in the activity and that your fellow members trust you enough to elect you to a position of authority.
Employment counts! Students who are employed are sometimes concerned about the lack of extracurricular activities. Maintaining employment can demonstrate similar characteristics such as dedication, commitment, leadership, maturity, etc. Don’t discount these experiences, highlight them.
