Projects & Creation
A portfolio of built things - the single strongest differentiator in a US application.
What it is
A portfolio of things you actually built - code, designs, research, businesses, whatever your field calls for. This is, on its own, the single strongest differentiator in a US application.
Why universities care
Grades tell them you can learn. A built project tells them you can create, finish, and take ownership - the exact qualities they're admitting students for.
What's included
Guided project work, from ideation to a finished, presentable output, with mentor check-ins along the way.
Who it's for
Grades 9-12 - projects scale in ambition as you progress.
On your dashboard
Every project lives in your Portfolio with its own page - description, process, outcome, and any media or links.
