High school journals are predatory. Please just let them be kids. Research is for professors.

Research papers are common for art portfolios? I feel like I must’ve missed a step or two in what you’re trying to convey here.


Sorry. I just meant there are sometimes more detailed instructions for submitting additional materials along with the application.

Oh, thank you, that makes sense. I think I needed coffee.

They do have to write so many papers now. Especially in an IB program. If there's a really notable one or something very relevant to the application you could include it. Hard to know if it will actually be considered unless it's specifically requested.


Oh these are essays that contain research.

Just submit a research paper they wrote in high school, it doesn’t need to be published research.

High schoolers don’t need to do research to get into college. Publish or perish is for professors.

My DC submitted one that was published. she participated in in the research and the head researcher put her in the byline for her contribution. The instructions from the institution had indicated what type of materials they would consider for submission and published research was on that list.
