What is the Jefferson Scholars Program at UVA?

College is very expensive, you may have noticed, as even public schools like the University of Virginia have seen their costs creeping up to levels which are quite high. Schools have their own scholarship programs, ways to help students afford the cost of tuition; each of these, however, has its own quirks, and generally can only help a small subset of students....

The Research Science Institute Expands to Stanford

We’ve written about the Research Science Institute (RSI) before. It’s one of the best summer programs in the country for academically talented students who are interested in science and engineering; a free program which offers remarkable opportunities, and which strongly correlates to getting into a top college. Recently, the program made an unexpected announcement: they are expanding operations to Stanford’s campus....

Top Colleges With Neuroscience Majors

The brain is an important organ, one of the most complex and studied in the human body. There is perhaps a bit of bias, as it is your brain reading these words, but the study of neuroscience is popular and difficult for good reasons, with many students wanting to pursue it either in preparation for careers in research or as a launchpad to medical school and beyond. ...

What is the Self-reported Transcript and Academic Record System?

Colleges care about the grades you got in high school, quite a bit in fact. This isn’t any surprise for students. What is a surprise, and often an inconvenience, is telling colleges about your grades. After all, your high school submits a transcript when you apply, surely that should be the end of it. What more is there for you to do?...

How to Find (and Evaluate) Resources for Your High School Research Project

Research is a collaborative venture, be that directly or indirectly. Some researchers work in large teams in laboratories, while others work alone. All research, however, is inspired and supported by the work done by generations of scientists and scholars, seeing further because we stand upon the shoulders of giants. All scientists and researchers must rely on these resources, especially high school students, just starting out in their first research ventures....

What are Online High Schools?

High schools are traditionally places where students go each day, rotating through classes, speaking with friends, and having the experience that’s been immortalized on screen in many films and TV shows. This is a digital age however, and there are options for high school that aren’t in person. Online high schools are nothing new, but they are still not exactly mainstream, even as they grow in popularity....

What is Duke’s STAR Program?

How to spend your summer is an annual question for high school students, especially as the summer before your senior year is increasingly seen as key to impressing admissions officers with a capstone accomplishment.

How to Benefit From College Admissions Webinars

Colleges love to send out feelers and information to students, those who have shown they are interested or not. At this point you’ve likely received hundreds of emails, and a significant volume of physical mail from colleges who want you to know just why you should apply to them. A constant part of this are invitations to webinars, presentations over Zoom by admissions officers where they discuss the admissions process in detail....

Top Colleges Admissions Policy Updates in 2026

College admissions work more-or-less the same each year, but there are multitudes contained within that statement. Especially amongst top colleges, admissions officer frequently tweak their priorities and how they evaluate students. Now, many of these are internal discussions we never get to hear about, policy or institutional shifts which don’t make the news. Other changes, however, impact students directly in terms of what’s offered and what’s required of them....
