My school gives students the option of taking an off period in their senior year. I signed up for this with the intention of using the time to continue working a part-time job (15 hrs/week). Now I’m having second thoughts. Will “senior out” raise a red flag on my applications? (I’m looking at several elite schools–think HYP, Brown, Northwestern.) My senior year schedule still includes five APs. Thanks for the advice.
