Start at least six weeks before the deadline so you have room to refine your narrative. Open a fresh Notion doc and outline three concise sections: (1) your founder/operator background, (2) proof of consistent angel activity, and (3) specific ways you help portfolio companies. Lean on metrics – number of hires you sourced, products you shipped, exits you supported – to show traction.
When completing the Typeform, answer every prompt with tight, data‑backed paragraphs (100‑150 words each). After submission, line up two past founders to vouch for you; if you progress to interview, reference their successes concretely. Use the interview to clarify your investment focus and ask thoughtful questions about the cohort rhythm. Finally, follow the First Round partners on X and repost the application call: public enthusiasm signals genuine engagement.
Who should apply?
Founders and senior operators who have already completed several angel investments and want to professionalise their approach.
Do I need to be an accredited investor?
No – you can join the program without accreditation, though you must be accredited to invest.
Is the program remote?
Core sessions are held on Zoom, with optional in‑person dinners in San Francisco and New York.
How big is each cohort?
Around 35‑40 fellows are selected per cycle to keep discussions interactive.
Does First Round invest alongside fellows?
The fellowship itself does not include capital, but alumni sometimes receive invites to co‑invest in First Round deals.
