[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about normal part time jobs like at a restaurant or a small business? Are those valued by AOs in admission for a UMC kid or only meaningful when it’s a questbridge low-income kid doing it to support their family? Our full pay private school DD has a job she really likes and is spending nearly all her afterschool time at this job. It’s an honest good job that takes hardwork, she’s learning about how to run a small business and if I may even say lessons on life but it’s not cancer research or developing app in Silicon Valley [/quote] You should include it because if that's what is occupying her free time if she doesn't include it, it's going to be unclear what she does with all of her time. And if she values this experience why do you want to send her to University that does not value it?[/quote]
