How can I maximize my time before college (especially during the summer)?
As a current senior that has applied to colleges and is waiting for decisions, what should be my priority now (besides maintaining grades, etc.)? I would like to start my own business in the future and I'm not sure if I should begin to invest my time in starting a small business/hustle or find something to potentially do in the summer. I wouldn't mind having a job; however, I'm not even sure how to really start in that area. I do not want to spend my time doing jobs where I earn money but don't gain practical skills/value. Overall, I want to start 2026 with clear goals for myself as I move to a life outside of my home. Any tips are appreciated. :)

What is the best way to take advantage of my summer before starting college?
Hi! My name is Mayela and I am an 18-year-old senior in high school residing in the Sacramento Area. I recently got accepted into UCSB and will be attending this fall as a pre-biology major on the pre-med track. I’m currently trying to figure out the best way to take advantage of my summer before school starts because my family cannot support me financially and I’ll be paying for most of my expenses on my own. I know UCSB offers a FSSP summer program where you can knock off a few units and get ahead in credits, but it requires money and to live in campus. I’m debating whether I should join the program or take cheaper classes at local community colleges instead, that way I wont have to move to Santa Barbara yet. I am also debating whether I should apply for paid internships/jobs instead so that I can start saving some money before school starts and to gain experience for my resume. As a first-gen who has literally no idea how to pay for college, what’s the best thing I should do?

What's my next step for the summer as a rising senior intending to major in pharmacology if most are not available?
Following up with my previous question on what part time job I can get for pharmacology, I tried applying for a pharmacy clerk position at a local Walgreen. However, Michigan law (where I'm at) says that we must have a high school diploma to get a job at a pharmacy. Same with most hospitals: most prefer if you are in college or have at least some medical experience. I am still waiting for a couple internship summer program results. I'm also trying to reach out to local college professors, research centers, and small pharmaceutical companies if they would let me intern over the summer, but I'm not so sure if they would take me in. I do have a great volunteer work though! Been going at it for the last couple months at a blood donation center :) Any other suggestions on what I can do over the summer to prepare myself for college?
