## About this program

KU Cancer Center’s ACE programme pairs local high-school juniors and seniors with faculty for six weeks of cancer-focused research and a final poster presentation.

Applicants must attend a Wyandotte County, Kansas or Jackson County, Missouri high school, have a GPA of at least 3.0, be at least 16 and legally eligible to work in the U.S., and have guardian permission. The page gives March 1, 2027 at noon as the application deadline and a USD 2,940 stipend upon successful completion, but its application banner remains closed.
