The Institute has stopped accepting any further applicants into the Summer 2009 Semester. There are 79 Founders in the Program: 54 are local, and 25 will be attending remotely.
All of the applicants are extremely qualified, and we apologize that we were unable to fit everyone into this inaugural Semester. The Institute accepted four more Founders than planned. In the future, we will be examining ways to increase the Semester size.
We want to thank everyone who applied for going through the process, and we will make resources available to assist you however we can. Our mission is to help entrepreneurs succeed.
