Garrett Educational Consulting is the only firm in Charlotte offering this program, and one of only a handful worldwide with access to this level of opportunity for our students.

​

Colleges value research because it reflects academic passion, intellectual maturity, and initiative—especially at selective institutions where research experience is a common trait among admitted applicants.

​

This isn’t just another extracurricular. It’s a chance to publish, impress, and truly stand out.
