Young Scholars Admissions
Helping Gifted Families Soar
Our program is free to profoundly gifted students and their families and gives them the opportunity to connect and engage in a community that understands their needs.
Eligibility Assessment Partnership
The Davidson Institute has partnered with Northwestern University’s Center for Talent Development (CTD) to offer the opportunity to take an official practice SAT powered by Khan Academy.
Scores from this administration can be used to apply to any Davidson Institute program, including the Young Scholars program.
