Their loss. I have never like the holistic approach for admission. Back in my days (looooooooooong ago), all we needed were good GPAs, good SAT/ACT scores (no superscore) and difficulty in HS course selection. We didn’t have to BS on essays or doing community services. “Community service” is what you will contribute to society after getting the degree. It is more impactful. Honestly, I have kids currently in college and graduated from college recently from top schools and mediocre schools and they have all said most kids don’t do much in college in term of community service except for partying, going to games and if engineering majors, studying studying and studying.
