Pioneer Academics ~ Pioneer Research Program (sponsored through NAGC)

the Pioneer Research Program is the only fully-accredited virtual research institute for students in high school.


Gifted students don’t require high-end mentors to help them thrive.

What they need is the highest level of challenge to conduct original research.

Pioneer Academics is well known for being highly selective and academically rigorous.

All selected scholars are mentored first in small international groups and then in one-on-one research by faculty of highly-respected colleges and universities. Pioneer Scholars receive training in research methodologies, access to digital undergraduate libraries, and connections to a global alumni community.

Register for an online information session with Pioneer Academics before April 1 to learn more.

Pioneer Academics’ 2022 summer term application deadline is April 10.
