[quote=Anonymous]Private in Montgomery County requires 100 SSL. They did not drop their required during Covid. It was a challenge to find volunteer opportunities that were meaningful for my kid because they weren't in person. With that said, the areas that he did select when he had the opportunity for in=person spoke to his interests (nature related). As he was working on his applications - he used that trend as part of his essay and application. I do think schools want to see a kid beyond just their academics - this is one way to do it. It likely doesn't hold much weight - but if a school can't do an interview then having kids be able to show things related to their interests. None of the schools my child applied to had outright service components as part of their criteria, but I did notice that many of the clubs and student organizations do service - so I can see him continuing to volunteer in college.
