What extracurriculars can I do over the summer that are meaningful?
Hey, im a rising senior who is mostly free over the summer! I was wondering what meaningful extracurricular activities I could do over the summer to improve college applications. Are there still any internships/summer programs open to apply to? Should I do online courses?
I am looking to mostly go into the STEM field. Thanks for your help!

Honestly I may not know to much as I am only an upcoming junior, but I would definitely advise doing community service in your free time, not only to help the community but it can also help you find more scholarships that apply to each hour you work! :)
I would recommend some form of community service, colleges want to see that you care about others, so try a church, or a food pantry, or even an animal shelter, record your hours and put them in your application.
I recommend applying to any of and that you are eligible for. Besides these opportunities, look into too. Try to focus on activities related to your particular interest in STEM.
If you can't find extracurriculars to do, I would recommend studying for the SAT/ACT and getting a head start on your college apps over taking online courses. Hope this helps!
