About Event

Parents and students, join our panel of the world’s top university students to learn the high school playbook for landing dream internships, identifying and creating passion projects, and using summers to set up for college and career success. In today’s hyper-competitive college admissions environment, it has never been as important for students to use their summers to pursue a passion and set themselves apart. 

Our panelists include:

  • Johnathan, Stanford University Class President ‘22

  • Henry, Harvard College ‘23 & current Oxford PHD student

  • Ian, University of Michigan '20

  • Shula, Vanderbilt ‘23

In this panel, we’ll discuss:

  • Tactical steps to find and land a dream high school internship

  • How to transform big ideas (a company, NGO, project, etc.) into an real project

  • Where students should start to find their niche 

  • Parent resources to best support ambitious students

  • How to build upon past experiences to create a holistic, unique “student story” that captures who they are for college applications. 

We invite parents of high schoolers in any year & students themselves to our panel - it’s never too early to start identifying & developing your passion! We are hosting this event in partnership with Curious Cardinals, ​​a dynamic education platform featured in Forbes, on The Today Show, and CNN

Join us for what’s to be a valuable and insightful panel discussion. If you want to learn more…
