From Curiosity to Clarity: A Summer Guide to Finding Your Thing

Summer is the perfect time to step outside the classroom and dive into real-world experiences that help you discover what you love—and what you don’t. But with so many options out there, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. That’s where we come in.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how students can use their summers to experiment with new interests, explore potential career paths, and gain meaningful experience that helps them grow—and stand out on college applications.

Led by experts from CollegeAdvisor and Polygence (a research mentorship platform that connects students with PhD mentors), this session will break down:

Creative ways to test out your interests through volunteering, internships, summer programs, online learning, and independent projects

How to align your summer plans with your long-term goals, even if you’re still figuring them out

Why passion matters in the college admissions process, and how to demonstrate genuine intellectual curiosity

An inside look at Polygence Pods, small group research courses where you’ll work with expert mentors to explore topics like psychology, AI, business, and more

Whether you’re just starting to explore or ready to go deeper in a subject you love, this webinar will help you find your path—and make the most of your summer.
