Artificial Intelligence isn’t some distant future anymore. It’s shaping our decisions, our art, our cities—even how we diagnose diseases or respond to climate change.

But here’s the catch: most high school students only get to read about AI. With Veritas AI, they get to work with it.

When Spark Prep partners with Veritas AI, we believe students don’t have to wait until college or grad school to do real, meaningful work in the field of artificial intelligence. They can start now.

A Lab for the Next Generation of Thinkers

 1. Not just learning AI. Building with it.

Students don’t just sit through lectures. At Veritas AI, they build actual models. Write code. Tinker with neural networks. Explore how AI can detect disease, analyze public sentiment, or optimize climate models. Every student ends the program with a personal research project that reflects their own interests—and could go on to be presented, published, or even developed further.

2. Real mentorship—not just teaching.

This isn’t “watch a webinar and do a worksheet” learning. Veritas AI pairs students 1-on-1 with mentors from Harvard, Stanford, Columbia, and top research labs. These mentors guide students like collaborators—offering academic challenge, yes, but also curiosity, open conversation, and high expectations. It’s rare, and it matters.

3. Academic credibility + impact.

Students can earn official UC San Diego post-baccalaureate credits—a signal to future universities that they’re not just dabbling, but doing serious, structured work. Plus, Veritas AI supports students who want to publish or present their projects, meaning their ideas can reach far beyond the classroom.

What Spark Prep Brings to the Table

Through our partnership with Veritas AI, Spark Prep students get:

• Priority access to popular cohorts (which fill up fast)
  
  
• Special promotions and scholarships
  
  
• Personalized guidance on choosing the right program track, building out the project, and using it meaningfully in college applications
  
  

We’ve seen firsthand how AI is changing the academic and career landscape—and Veritas AI is one of the few programs preparing students for that shift in a serious, future-facing way.

This isn’t just about AI. It’s about agency.

The most exciting part? Veritas AI doesn’t just teach you how to build a model. It teaches you how to think—deeply, ethically, creatively—about the role of technology in society.

And that’s exactly the kind of learning we stand behind at Spark Prep.
