ABOUT · MISSION
The education sector should be open, and easy to find your way around.
The Blueprint Project started as one student's search for things worth applying to. It's now a free, hand-researched map of internships, competitions, scholarships, and research programs for high schoolers, verified by hand, tracked by deadline, and free to everyone.

THE BLUEPRINT PROMISE
No hidden agenda
Three promises we make to every student who uses Blueprint.
Free, forever
No paywalls, no premium tier, no access fee. Every program listed is free to apply to and free to browse.
- No premium tier, no paywall
- Free to browse, free to apply
- Student-built, not VC-funded
Unbiased algorithms
No paid placements, no sponsor bias, no boosted listings. Programs rank on fit and deadline, nothing else.
- No sponsored or boosted listings
- Results ranked by fit, not revenue
- Every listing treated the same
100% data privacy
No account required to browse, and nothing is sold or shared. When tracking arrives, it stays yours.
- No account needed to search
- Nothing sold or shared, ever
- Your data stays yours
