We don't admit everyone. We admit students ready for intellectual rigor and coaches willing to be challenged. Start with the Cognitive Audit.
CogniGrit is for students who are:
They ask "why" relentlessly. They want to understand systems, not just memorize facts. They're bored by surface-level thinking.
They understand that growth happens in the friction. They don't expect easy answers. They embrace productive struggle.
This is intensive. Your child needs to commit 4-6 hours per week for 6 months. It's not a side activity—it's a priority.
Coaches will challenge them. They need to be receptive to critique and willing to revise their thinking.
We're not interested in students who are smart but difficult. Kindness, respect, and integrity matter as much as IQ.
Parents need to actively support this. Attend progress meetings. Ask your child about what they learned. This is a family commitment.
Academic achievement matters less than intellectual character. A student with a 3.8 GPA who never questions themselves won't succeed. A student with a 3.2 GPA who asks relentlessly "why" and "how do you know?" will thrive.
The Cognitive Audit isn't a test you pass or fail. It's a diagnostic assessment that reveals your child's cognitive strengths, growth potential, and the best track for their development.
Your child completes a 90-minute interactive assessment designed to measure the 6 cognitive dimensions (Assumption Detection, Evidence Evaluation, Bias Resistance, Sequential Clarity, Systems Thinking, and Cognitive Endurance). No cramming. No right/wrong answers. Just *how* they think.
We ask you a series of questions: How does your child approach complex problems? How do they handle being wrong? What frustrates them? How do they respond to challenge? This context matters.
Our assessment team reviews the results and creates a personalized cognitive profile. This takes 1-2 weeks and is thorough. No automated scoring. Real human analysis.
You and your child meet with a CogniGrit coach (60 minutes) to review the results. We discuss strengths, growth areas, track recommendation, and answer all your questions about the program.
If we believe your child is a good fit AND your family is ready to commit, we offer a spot (subject to cohort availability). If we don't think we're the right fit, we tell you honestly and suggest alternatives.
You enroll in the next available cohort (Spring or Summer). Your child meets their coach, gets assigned a cohort, and begins the 6-month intensive.
$245 for the full assessment and feedback session.
Why not free? We take the assessment seriously. A nominal cost ensures students are genuinely interested and parent commitment is real. If you're admitted and enroll, we credit $245 toward tuition.

We give honest feedback. The Cognitive Audit will show your child's current strengths and areas for growth. If they're not ready now, we suggest specific ways to prepare for next year. We're invested in your child's development, not just enrollment.
Not exclusively. We look for intellectual curiosity and willingness to engage deeply—not raw IQ. Some of our students are "gifted" by conventional measures. Others are highly driven, self-directed learners. Both thrive here.
Age is a guideline, not a rule. A 10-year-old who thinks like a 13-year-old belongs in Track B. A 14-year-old who is still developing foundational reasoning belongs in Track A. The Cognitive Audit determines placement.
We don't offer refunds because cognitive growth isn't like a product. But we do offer flexibility: if a student genuinely isn't thriving, we'll work with your family to find a better solution or exit gracefully. Very rare, but we prioritize your satisfaction.
Privacy is non-negotiable. We are GDPR and COPPA compliant. Student data is encrypted. Parents control what information is shared. We never sell or distribute student data. Full privacy policy at cognigrit.com/privacy-policy.html
Your child graduates with measurable cognitive growth. Track A alumni are welcome to apply to Track B. Beyond that, we offer optional advanced seminars, mentorship connections, and continued community access. But the intensive program is complete.
Active but not demanding. You attend a monthly 30-minute check-in with your child's coach. You review the progress dashboard. You support your child's growth at home by asking better questions and celebrating thinking, not just grades. We provide templates and guidance.
Take the first step. The Cognitive Audit reveals your child's thinking patterns and growth potential.
