How can I show leadership skills to my Highschool for college?
Posted on April 30th, 2010 by admin
I’m a freshman and I want to know the ways to show leadership like
ex) Student gov positions, etc
Try becoming one of your class’ officers! Or a club officer, and stick with it as long as you can. You want to show universities that you can handle it, and that you don’t give up easily. Most of all that you’re committed. I mean sure, you can just aim for straight A’s but as I’m sure you already know, colleges want well rounded people. Maybe join a sport, or join the school band. Also/or you can try volunteering at hospitals, animal shelters, offices. Your goal by the time you reach senior year is to have as many experiences to make you stand out as possible. But be careful, don’t put too much on your plate because if you try doing too much you will burn yourself out. :/
Good luck!
