Suggested Summer Activities
Here are some suggestions for summer activities:
Sign
up for a summer internship at a local business.
Get a summer job . . . BUT BE CAREFUL! If
you make a lot of money during the year, colleges will consider your
job a renewable source of income that can be used to pay for college.
As a result, they may not give you as much need-based scholarship and
grant money next year. Colleges expect you to earn about $3,249 during
the year – if you earn more than this, you could be hurting your
chances for earning need-based scholarships during your college sophomore
year.
Become involved in a volunteer or
summer program.
Further your academics at
a local community college or high school. |
