College Extracurricular Activities
Prospective university students are up against increasing standards. More than impeccable grades and test scores, successful applicants must excel in a specific, and ideally, unique area. You must be a specialist to snag a coveted spot at an elite school.
Bentham’s team of expert consultants, all graduates from top universities, know how to stand out against a backdrop of thousands of intellectually qualified applicants. We translate your admissions goals into specific, compelling college extracurricular activities that separate you from the rest of the field and maximize your admissions odds.
Our consultants know the best college application extracurriculars, especially when it comes to extracurriculars for Ivy League colleges. We help you develop a tailored strategy for your summers and school years that fits your interests and ensures you emerge with an edge that appeals to exclusive colleges.
At Bentham, We Use Proven Strategies To Ensure Your Extracurricular Activities Demonstrate:
Colleges recruit leaders. You need to show you are capable, responsible, and take initiative, so admissions officers see you as the future they need.
Depth over breadth is key. Every activity needs to be in service of your personal brand, showcasing your sense of self, direction, and unique story of passionate curiosity.
Specialists can still be generic. Elite schools want motivated and interesting people. They want students who fill a niche.
Commitment matters, especially long-term commitment. Schools want to see you are dedicated and do what it takes, both which are critical to academic and professional success.
