Review Overall, I had a really great experience at VU and have learned a tremendous amount from having taken part in it. Being a mere sophomore in college and a natural introvert, at times I felt intimidated by my fellow cohort members, given their substantial experience, but I used the time I spent in the office to really break out of my shell and let my opinions be heard. Doing that has been very beneficial for me in developing my social skills, which translated to my leadership position at college at well. However, there are a few things that could have been improved upon. I wish we had more time to dig deeper into each startup and discuss in depth at partners meetings. At times they felt rushed and sometimes companies were judged unfairly or too quickly based on previous assumptions. Also, I wish the partners were more accessible because at times they did not feel approachable due to their busy schedule. Additionally, I would've liked the program to be a bit longer, due to the sheer amount of startups we had to analyze, it was very difficult for me to get through all of them. Apart from those aspects, I did enjoy my time at VU and might join again in the future.

Venture University If you want to learn how VC works and be around a family/individuals knowledgeable about the startup industry and the newly rising asset class "Venture Capital", Venture University is the place to be! No matter what experience you have in VC or your age, Venture University's curriculum is useful for all!

VU Venture Partners: Spreading VC Knowledge To All An amazing fund to get to be a part of and learn from with very high caliber members in the program to grow alongside of. It was a great real first taste for me to deep dive and learn more about the Venture Capital and Private Equity space, and I will definitely be looking for opportunities to join a fund down the road. Overall great experience, and grateful for the opportunity.

Super great, learn by doing experience. Highly recommended! Highly recommended and a great way of learning to be a VC. A very engaging and satisfying program led by knowledgeable industry experts and a great team. It's a super great opportunity to meet and engage with the founders, LPs, GPS, and other VCs. Learn by doing.

Amazing experience at VU! The VU program gave us the opportunity to learn the business of venture capital from the ground up and armed us with the tools needed to hit the ground running in the industry. Overall a high quality program and platform run by highly skilled practitoners who genuinely want to help you succceed. I was honored to be a part of a great team and Cohort 9.
