Small-group instruction targets roughly five students per mentor. | Selection: Standard student programs are purchased first-come, first-served by age and session capacity; they are not merit-selective. Invitation-only Elite and scholarship programs are separate. | Application materials: Historical application includes essay, school grade report, English and math/science teacher forms. Aid requested in the initial application with parent financial documents; not a later add-on. Review requires complete materials. |
