Harvard University?

I know it's a bit early, but im a freshman and high school and ive wanted to go to harvard since I was 8, and I was wondering what I could do in high school that would give me a better chance of getting in. I'm pretty involved, 4 clubs, not holding any positions yets since i just started, 1 sport so far, and 3 honors classes.


What else can I do?

Harvard University?
Get the HIGHEST GPA possible. Be president of everything, do A LOT of community service. Try studying or traveling abroad, or doing some kind of summer program/leadership thing. Leadership and diversity are key. Choose one (or a few) thing(s) you love, and excel in it as far as possible. It's good to be involved in 30 clubs, but colleges would prefer a few that you are deeply involved in. Did I mention show leadership? Be different, and get the best grades, being #1 in your class doesn't even mean you'll be accepted.

Reply:Apply to take college courses early and attend camps that give you HS and college credit.
Reply:To be qualified to get into Harvard, you will need a 3.8 GPA (unweighted) with lots of AP and honors classes, 2150+ on your SAT test and a killer admissions essay.





Being qualified may not be enough. Harvard accepts 8% of those who apply. If half are qualified (and I suspect the percentage is greater) then 84% of those who are qualified to get in will be turned down.





Good luck.
Reply:One of my high school friends is at Harvard right now. He was the valedictorian, involved in several extracurricular activities, and was in honors and AP classes.





Make sure that you get involved in some leadership position such as a class officer.





Get to be good friends with your teachers so they will give you good recommendation letters.





Study well enough so that you are earning A's in your classes.
