Yes, all programs are virtual, and an asynchronous learning path is available for those who are juggling multiple things for the summer (camps, jobs, etc.).
No. The program is absolutely free.
Anyone who is a current high school student (grades 9 through 12) or older can apply. We highly encourage non-traditional students, like those who did not attend college, are serving in the military, or wish to re-enter the educational system, to apply. International students are welcome.
Each program has a separate application. You can find all application links in the Apply tab.
In the case that we don't have enough mentors to support student interest, we will prioritize students who are from underserved communities, underrepresented in science, and/or older students who have never pursued scientific research in the past. We will provide all applicants with no mentor match the opportunity to learn asynchronously with us.
