A Message for Our SMPY Cohorts

Summer 2026

Greetings once again from the Study of Mathematically Precocious Youth (SMPY) at Vanderbilt University. We are now gearing up to do another follow-up of our SMPY cohorts!

Right now, we are preparing for the next follow-up, which will launch in early 2027. Like the last follow-up, this survey will be web-based and executed by the same vendor (SoundRocket). We will send more information about your cohort’s follow-up via email closer to that time.

For now, we would simply like to confirm that we have your preferred email address in our records. To verify your preferred email address, you may either:

  1. Respond to the recent email from SoundRocket requesting this information.
  2. Contact our research team directly using the information below in order to verify your preferred email address.

Thank you for your help preparing for our next follow-up survey! We will be in touch again soon.

Sincerely,
