Why ¹ú²úµÚÒ»¸£ÀûÓ°Ôº²Ý²Ý decided to start promoting Polygence

Over the years, we’ve noticed an increase in the number of students/families wanting to pursue research. As we all know, it’s incredibly competitive for high school students to be selected for any type of research project/program. Colleges often draw from graduate students and current college students to assist with research (as they should), leaving high school students spending a lot of wasted effort and time searching for opportunities that often don’t exist. That’s where Polygence steps in.

Polygence matches current high school students with graduate students to guide mentored research projects, many of which go on to be published or find some other type of audience. We believe this cost is entirely reasonable, given that many summer programs can often exceed $5,000-$6,000+.

Numerous research programs similar to Polygence have popped up in recent years. Some charge in excess of $10,000-$15,000 while using aggressive sales tactics to target families, going as far as to print false information/claims on their websites. We spent a lot of time vetting Polygence, learning more about their approach and how they work with students. We were also impressed by the professionalism and dedication exhibited by their entire team, including the faculty mentors.
