Summer Programs

After reading a lot about peoples college acceptances, a lot of them have done summer internships and summer programs.

I’m involved in track and cross country at my school which last over the summer. I plan to become a captain senior year. There are captain practices over the summer until preseason, which starts in early August.

Because of all of these practices, I won’t have any time for any internships or programs over the summer.

Would this prevent acceptances to prestigious universities?

(I’m not looking to be a recruiter athlete as well, I want to double major in Business and Environmental Science)

No one is going to have summer internships, or enroll in summer classes, unless they are online this summer. So stop worrying about this. Focus on your own things that you are able to do. There will be enough challenges with that given the situation right now.
