TCU High School Investor Challenge
This popular program invites promising high school seniors from across Texas to manage their own virtual portfolio.

The student then manages their virtual portfolio throughout the fall and spring, submitting stock trades online via TCU’s e-college. Security analysts critique the student choices and coach them in the finer points of stock picks. Students then present their results at a banquet at TCU in the spring..
