Ash was feeling so discouraged. He wanted to gain exposure to clinical opportunities, but every door slammed shut the second they heard he was a freshman. I felt helpless watching him give up on the idea. This program changed the entire game for us. They knew exactly how to handle the age barriers that felt impossible to us. Ash is officially a volunteer now, and I couldn't be prouder of the initiative he's taking, all because someone finally showed us how to get this opportunity.

James has been an exceptional mentor to my son, who is currently a high school freshman in a rigorous, science-focused curriculum. James's guidance, encouragement, and steady support have made a remarkable difference in my son’s academic journey and personal growth. He not only helps him navigate challenging coursework and extracurricular activities but also inspires him to think bigger, stay curious, and believe in his potential. We are truly grateful for the positive impact James has had on his development.

If you’re considering those expensive, five-figure research internships, stop. We almost fell for the $5,000 “pay-to-play” model for our daughter, Mia. With this program’s guidance, she secured a position in a real research lab in under a month. The return on this mentorship is unbeatable, not to mention the crystal-clear guidance provided by our Nexus mentor.

So proud of Kaden! He went from being a nervous freshman to founding two different clubs in just his freshman year of high school. We owe so much of that to Nexus’s Signature Project framework! It gave him the exact steps he needed to turn his interests into something real. It’s been incredible to see his confidence take off like this. He’s not only building something that will help him with BS/MD and Top 20 admissions, but also organizations that will help him impact his school and community.

Nexus has been an essential part of my college application journey. Before joining, I felt lost, unsure of what steps to take to reach college. Nexus provided the direction I needed, giving me a plan for preparing and applying to college, and guiding me through every stage with structure. With their mentorship, I learned how to identify my academic and extracurricular strengths and build on them strategically. Nexus transformed me from a confused student into someone admitted to my dream school, and prepared me for even greater opportunities ahead.

This program changed the trajectory of my pre-med journey. Every conversation helped me refine my goals and take concrete steps toward them, from applying to competitive summer programs to which clinical jobs and certificates to seek.
