Frequently asked questions
How does Smartious work for Oak Ridge National Lab scientist families?
Oak Ridge National Lab families are a notable Knoxville-area demographic — many scientific researchers homeschool to give children deeper preparation than Anderson County or Oak Ridge schools provide. Cambridge A-Level Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Further Mathematics deliver depth comparable to first-year university coursework. Our Online Plus tier includes 1-on-1 STEM acceleration for academically advanced scientific-family children.
Does Smartious help Knoxville families apply to UT Knoxville flagship engineering?
Yes. UT Knoxville (Tickle College of Engineering, Haslam College of Business, Honors College) accepts Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level. Cambridge A-Level rigour particularly strengthens UT Honors and engineering applications. We provide free Common App, UT Honors application support, and Tennessee HOPE Scholarship preparation guidance.
