When applying for studying in the United States, if the applicant works in the student union, the general admissions officer will think that the student is very responsible and has social skills. Of course, the student union is a student organization after all, and the level of leadership that can be reflected is limited to the school level.
2. Join the academic team.
Many academic teams, such as mathematics team, environmental science team, robot science team and Decathlon team, are extracurricular activity groups with high participation. This kind of experience can highlight your academic interests and talents outside the course, especially if you have related awards or honors.
3. Participate in artistic activities (music, drama, visual arts).
American universities like creative talents very much. For example, play a drama, play the cello or draw pictures. Students' artistic activities can bring more vitality to the campus, which is exactly what American university admissions officers hope to see in the future.
4. Diversified clubs
American college admissions officers want to see students participate in various campus organizations, such as cross-cultural exchange organizations and multi-faith study groups. By understanding different cultures, contacting students with different beliefs and getting along with disabled students, a student's inclusive and open mind can be reflected.
5. Editors of school journals (school newspapers and literary magazines)
Not only in China, but also for American students, the problem of poor writing ability is widespread. However, when applying for American universities, writing ability is the key factor to successfully apply for universities. Therefore, actively participating in text editing activities and exercising your writing ability will be of great help to your successful application for studying in the United States.
6. Take part in sports.
Nowadays, many students take part in extracurricular sports activities. There is no doubt that participating in sports activities can exercise team spirit and keep healthy body. In particular, we must pay attention to one thing: don't neglect other types of extracurricular activities because you participate in too many sports activities. Students should continue to take part in four or six different extracurricular activities in high school, not just different sports.
