Startup Evaluation Program

The eligibility requirements for each Cohort is clearly stated in the program description on the previous page. Do not apply if you do not meet ALL stated criteria (e.g. U.S. Veteran, specific State/Regional/National residency, etc.)

After a thorough, multi-stage review of all applicants, VSN endeavors to select the best startups for the limited number of full scholarships that is listed for each cohort. Half-scholarships are offered to all other qualified applicants.

All information, updates and instructions will be provided via email. You should receive multiple emails weekly throughout your participation in the program. It is your responsibility to make sure that these emails are being properly received (and not defaulting to your spam or junk folders), that you are reading every word in every email, and that you are promptly complying with any instructions contained therein.

You will be advised of the specific Due Date for each assignment. You must submit the requested information on or before the relevant Due Date. Generally, you will have 7-12 days for each major assignment and 3-6 days for feedback surveys.

Failure to provide the requested and required information by the corresponding Due Date may result in your immediate expulsion from the program.
