Lacking on that experience? This will help you look unique compared to the other 1,000 kids applying for the same college.

Earn money.

Who doesn't want money?

You have something to do now.

Now you won't be bored all summer!

You have the freedom to go out and do something.

You are now independent enough to go and explore the world since you are working and earning for a living.

Gain experience in the workplace.

This allows you to see if this is truly what you want to do after college or as a job.

Savings

This money can go towards your college funds or for something personal that you would like to have. Like a car or a nice camera.
