Program catalogue — S to C admissions tiers

The catalogue

Programs ranked by the weight admissions committees actually give them.

Research programs, internships, olympiads and summer schools for grades 9–12, each tiered S to C with the reasoning attached, and filtered by your citizenship, grade, funding needs and visa situation. Real admissions signal is concentrated in a small number of free, merit-selected programs: in the 2024 NACAC State of College Admission research, fewer than 9% of admissions officers rated paid pre-college programs as having considerable importance in decisions. How we tier.

The interactive catalogue needs JavaScript. It lists pre-university research programs, internships, olympiads and summer schools worldwide for students in grades 9–12, graded on an S/A/B/C admissions-weight scale, with eligibility by citizenship, funding type, visa requirement, host country and grade level, plus the date each record was last reviewed and a link to its official source page.
