Beyond the Resume: Crafting a Standout Activity List

Understand what admissions officers want to see on your extracurricular activity list, optimize your involvement for the college application, and learn how to write effective activity list descriptions.

In this free webinar hosted by Infinite Futures, former Ivy League admissions officers from Yale, Brown, Northwestern, and the UCs will help students build, organize, and write compelling activity list descriptions.

The Infinite Futures team will also share the differences between activity lists for the Common Application, Coalition Application, University of California Application, MIT Application, QuestBridge, and more.

Whether your student plans to apply to local colleges or state schools, or is aiming for Ivy League universities, this session is meant to meet families where they are at and provide tangible advice for the college application.

Infinite Futures is a full-service college advising company founded by educators. Our team of experienced Former Admissions Officers and College Advisors uses their decades of experience to help each student find success in high school and beyond.
