Congratulations to our Class of 2026 on gaining admission to many wonderful colleges this year! These Spike Lab seniors have worked hard over the past couple of years to launch Spikes, aka passion-based ventures with real-world impact. A Spike is a rare and authentic accomplishment among teenagers, which is why Spike Lab students often gain admissions to a number of the top and best-fit undergraduate programs. This spring, we celebrate our Spike Founders’ results.
