Excellent program

Professional and timely communication from the Polygence staff. Excellent mentorship and internship. My 17 year old son had a very positive experience, and learned about Genetic Engineering his junior year which prepares him well for what he wants to study in college. Worth the cost.

Everything was incredible!

Everything was exceptional! Team Polygence offers great support, reaching out and when responding to questions. The mentors are incredible as well. Overall, an awesome experience.My mentor was everything I wished for and more, helping me navigate writing my first systematic review paper, and giving me advice. The writing feedback was very helpful and thorough. I also presented at the Symposium of Rising Scholars, which Polygence holds and the opportunity and experience were phenomenal. I loved everything and would definitely recommend to the next person.

Great Polygence Experience

Polygence gave me an opportunity to work in a mentor-student project. It also provided an efficient way to communicate on the platform, and it did a wonderful job with matching. Every time Polygence emailed me, telling me that they would do something (whether it was to fix an error or reminding me about my meetings) they did it very fast and efficiently. The initial meeting I had with the admissions director was very helpful, and he was super friendly! My mentor was extremely helpful, and my showcasing specialist is very thoughtful! The staff is super knowledgeable. This is an awesome platform, and I’m looking forward to another project!

Awesome experience!

Polygence is an excellent platform for projects. It matches you with a responsible, engaged, and knowledgeable mentor, and provides a clear step-by-step process to guide students with no research experience.

Great mentor and platform!

The mentor was excellent -- friendly, supportive, knowledgeable. The Polygence platform was also very good at keeping track of sessions and managing conversations with the mentor. The post-session feedback form was especially helpful in keeping track of feedback for resume-writing and recommendation letters.

mentor was a great fit

mentor was a great fit! the only strange bit of the experience was the UC Irvine class which was a bit of a black box- not much feedback or guidance on anything.

My mentor was really good.

My mentor was really good. I enjoyed working with him. He was always friendly, supportive, and knowledgeable. The Polygence platform was also very helpful in keeping track of the project progress. The only issue was the first round of writing feedback -- Polygence didn't tell me what format to use for my paper when submitting it for writing feedback. So, I submitted a PDF, and the reviewer seemed upset by this (going by her messages/comments to me). I had to go back, upgrade to a paid Overleaf account, and then give my reviewer access to my Overleaf document. This miscommunication could have been avoided if Polygence had given me more upfront details about the writing feedback format, etc. Even better would have been to have the format somehow integrated into the platform.

Great experience with Polygence

We have had such a positive experience with Polygence. From the initial call with the representative Claire, to the assigned mentor, Ethan, to the Director of Customer Success, Tyler Vitone. As the lead director, Tyler always was available to answer all questions and offer guidance in a timely and professional manner. We really appreciate his prompt responses and investment in supporting students and families. Thank you so much!
