[quote=Anonymous]As someone who paid to play as people are calling it, I will say that it didn’t help get them in the school they went to. But it did help them piece together their interests. I think if you’re trying to game the system it’s easy for admissions to see that in their entire package. However, there’s many kids who go to these programs for true interest and learn more about themselves than just trying to check the box. By the way, you can get into schools like UVA without doing so. So for everyone who thinks it’s required, it’s not. Stay authentic and do what your kid WANTS to do. That shines through more and you don’t need to shell out thousands. With that said, any counselor that tells you not to take an opportunity given to you should be questioned as well. [/quote]
