what are my chances with and what are the perspectives of college admissions officers on summer camp counselors? I have gone to the same summer camp for years as a kid/teen. it influenced me so much i went back and became a counselor there. i was thinking i’m coming from a more unique point of view bc i’m not in a lab, office, etc. i mean, most college applicants have never led a group of 6th graders on 2 day wilderness trips in the middle of the forest before.

i’m applying to some tougher admission schools (tufts, uchicago, princeton). i’m top 2% of my class of 1400 students and my cumulative gpa is 4.55. what is your take?

in terms of working with kids, i also lead a small group of 6th grade girls in my youth group and i teach violin private lessons to middle schoolers
