[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A unifying theme among ED admits from our Big 3 school (those that have posted their ED to social media) seems to be that they "started a nonprofit." One or two I have seen seem fulsome and ongoing. Others, not so much. Is this the latest "angle" parents in the DMV are encouraging? Good works, even if done for a short period of time, are still worthwhile. And not all efforts will be successful. But anecdotally, it is curious. [/quote] It isn't just nonprofits. Kids are packaged as "entrepreneurs" as well.[/quote] Yeah -- seeing this a lot. And I agree with the prior poster who described it as "gross." It's worse than much of the 'voluntourism' out there. In this case, the kids generally are using the experience for an admissions edge.[/quote]
