What extracurricular activities should your student do for college admissions? It’s one of the most common, and most misunderstood, questions families ask.
According to college admissions expert Allison Slater Tate, there is no magic extracurricular, no secret “most impressive” activity, and absolutely no ranked list of what colleges value most.
What colleges actually want is much simpler:
➡️ Students who pursue real interests.
➡️ Activities that add meaning or value to their lives or communities.
➡️ An authentic high school experience and not a manufactured résumé.
In this video, Allison breaks down how to think about extracurriculars in a healthier, more realistic way that supports your teen instead of stressing them out.
In this video, Allison Slater Tate explains:
What extracurriculars colleges really look for
Why authenticity matters more than “impressive” activities
How students can explore interests without pressure
Why nothing is inherently “more valuable” than something else
How to guide your teen toward meaningful involvement
Bottom line: Your student should do what they genuinely care about — not what they think colleges want. Passion, consistency, and impact naturally shine through.
