Summer is coming up and applications are soon due for most summer programs. I am debating between working at a nearby university lab or volunteering at a local hospital. I am enthusiastic about both programs, but I will not have time for both.

In terms of colleges, which program would look better? Also, will either of the programs be useful for college admission at all?
