[quote=Anonymous]For our kid, we looked for programs and experiences that supported our kid's interest. Some were free/competitive and some were paid. New experiences can offer new perspectives, personal growth and allowed our kid to explore interests more deeply than they could at school. They also provided good insights and examples when writing college supplemental essays. You don't have to name drop the $$ program, but kid can talk about a curiosity they had, something they learned last summer, etc. I think having new experiences (paid or free) and being able to reflect upon them in essays can strengthen their college narrative if kid can connect those experiences to what they want to do in college.
