A VC fellowship gives you a seat inside the investing process for a season. Fellows typically source and evaluate companies, join partner meetings, and learn from a cohort.
Who it is for: students, early-career professionals, and operators exploring a move into venture.
What you get: mentorship, a cohort, exposure to real deals, and a line on your resume that funds recognize. Some fellowships pay a stipend, some share carry, and some are unpaid.
How people get in: most run an annual application window. Strong applicants show evidence that they already notice companies early and can write clearly about why.
The programs here state that they recruit military veterans, either only veterans or veterans among other groups.
