For educators
Why educators recommend NYSF
NYSF changes what a young person thinks is possible for them. Participants come away with a clearer sense of direction, a group of peers from around the country, and time spent in real research settings that a classroom can’t offer. Selection isn’t based on marks alone, and scholarships mean cost doesn’t filter students out before they start.
- Curriculum-aligned, genuine benefit
- Simple to recommend or host
- Selection on curiosity, not just marks
