Outstanding Extracurriculars: Advice from a Former Stanford Admissions Officer

Did you know the Common App has 10 activity slots and the UC App has 20?

It’s not about filling every slot—it’s about helping your child explore what they enjoy and finding activities that feel meaningful to them, not just doing what everyone else is doing.

Colleges want to learn about who your child really is, but what does that actually mean?

Join us for a special webinar with Daniel Chung, a former admissions officer at Stanford, Swarthmore, and Rice, who has helped students gain admission to every top-100 ranked college (and beyond). He'll share actionable tips and insights to help your student shine.

In this webinar, you'll learn:

• How to make activities shine: Turn everyday experiences—like clubs, jobs, or volunteering—into stories that impress admissions officers.
• Why leadership doesn’t need a title: Learn simple ways to showcase initiative, creativity, and impact without being “president” of anything.
• The perfect balance: Tips for highlighting a mix of interests that show both passion and purpose.

BONUS: This session will include a live Q&A with Daniel, so bring your questions about activities!
