Student Application & Registration
Student Applications
Applications for Summer 2025 Are Now Closed
Summer 2026 Applications Will Open In October 2025
New students are recruited in the 8th grade for the rising 9th Grade Summer Academies. Once a student has been accepted, they are automatically admitted into the following summers until they graduate the program. However, returning students must register before each summer program through Ideal-Logic and complete the necessary forms.
Students who missed the applications in 8th grade may apply as late applicants to fill in empty spots in the 10th – 12th grade academies.
The applicant must:
- Provide basic information*, including a working email for the student and a parent/guardian.
- Upload their grades from the previous school year.
- Answer several short answer questions pertaining to their interest in STEM, the geosciences, and the GeoFORCE program.

Student Registrations
Registrations Are Closed For Summer 2025
Students accepted into the program for Summer 2025, and all returning students will need their parents or guardians to register them on Ideal-Logic. All registration links are private and will be emailed out to each individual student & guardian. This is a simple registration process, not a new application.
If students do not complete their registration by the deadline given in the Spring, their spot will be released to another student.
