College Resume:  Just the Facts

The college resume is important to your application for several reasons.  It not only provides the admission counselor with your one-page personal profile, but also acts as another sample of your ability to write, organize and present yourself.  The college resume focuses on your academic achievements, extra-curricular activities, and personal interests.  This is your chance to neatly list everything you have accomplished throughout your high school career.  Keep in mind that while this resume can supplement your application, you should still fill in everything that’s required on the application itself unless the directions mention otherwise!
