From your first research question to your final paper, with one mentor beside you.
A selective 1:1 research fellowship for ambitious high-school students developing original work in STEM, economics, and finance.
50+ students mentored · 40+ student publications · 8 students per cohort
From idea to final paper in 8 weeks.
Your mentorship doesn’t end when the paper is complete. We continue supporting students pursuing publication or competition submissions at no additional cost.
GRF is intentionally small.
Our Standard:
A complete research paper: from initial idea to publication-ready draft
Direct, rigorous feedback from a PhD-level mentor
Independent thinking, not templated work
A level of academic depth rarely seen at the high-school level
Extended support for publication and science fair participations
We are not for everyone
Selective admission process
Designed for highly motivated, self-directed students
Requires consistent commitment and intellectual curiosity
Intended for students seeking a serious, long-term academic experience
Not for students looking for résumé padding or surface-level research
We keep our cohorts Intentionally small because true research cannot be scaled
