Two of the questions want a written answer, and those are the ones we read closely. Leave yourself room for them rather than arriving at them tired. Everything you type is saved in this browser as you go, so closing the tab will not cost you the draft.Saved locally, on your own machine. Nothing reaches us until you press submit.

1Who you are

We contact both the applicant and a parent or guardian, since most applicants are under 18.

Mentor check-ins are scheduled around this.

2Where you want to work

Pick the area you want to be matched into, then the topics within it that interest you most.

Topics that interest you

Choose between one and five. They do not have to sit inside the area you picked above.

Computer Science

Finance

Medical

3Background

Accuracy helps you here. We take students with no experience, and knowing that in advance is how we place you somewhere sensible.

Classes, projects, competitions, jobs, or nothing at all. 'None yet' is a complete answer.

For example: AP Statistics, Python, R, wet-lab experience, Excel.

GitHub, a writing sample, a project page, or anything else you would want us to look at.

4Availability

A cycle runs about sixteen weeks. Put down the hours that will actually happen, not the hours you hope for.

5Written answers

These two carry most of the weight when we read an application. Write them plainly.

At least 60 words.

It does not need to be original or feasible. We want to see how you think about a problem. At least 40 words.
