The Summit STEM Fellowship was a transformative community.
The fellowship pushed me from dreaming to doing, giving me the confidence to begin building my own initiative while also strengthening my skills in reflection, leadership, and resilience. SSF has truly been one of the most impactful experiences of my high school journey.

This fellowship was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.
It was truly transformative. I met many amazing people, some of whom I talk to regularly. I was taught far more than academic knowledge. I’ve learned so much from starting a podcast, nonprofits, time management to volunteering. All the mentors were amazing!
Ryan Hernandez
Alum from New York, USA
“
The program is an incredible opportunity for any STEM student.
In the span of a few weeks, each fellow is given advice in all areas, from science to motivation, as well as the chance to connect with incredible mentors. By the end of the program, I was left with a binder full of knowledge and a lifelong connection to people.

Before Summit STEM, I felt like I was piecing things together on my own.
Joining the fellowship felt completely different. From the first week, I was surrounded by mentors who not only shared real step-by-step guidance but also gave me resources I could never have found on my own. What surprised me most was the program's support.
