The deadline for Startup School is getting closer, so if you’re considering applying, now’s the time! Want to get your application reviewed by Startup School 17 alumni who all passed the course? We have a few founders who are happy to help. All reviewers are founders we know personally and all reviews will be done in a double-blind structure (they don’t know who you are - unless you choose to make it explicit - you don’t know who they are).

Send us an email here if you want feedback on your application:

I know a couple companies who understood the deadline was on the 13th. ie. Meaning applications closed 23:59 PST on August 13th. Not that applications closed 0:00:01 on August 13th. Can anyone comment on this?

It was very confusing, I hope and wish something could be done

Please see my other replies, we’re seeing if something can be done!

Did the application submission closed before the deadline. The site mentions deadline as Aug 13th and it seems I am unable to register. Could you please look into it. As a last year alumni of Startup School 2017, it has immensely helped me and my startup to refine and focus on things that matters.

We have a couple of founders here in the UK who got caught out by the same misunderstanding. I’m emailing the guys at YC to see if there’s anything that can be done. Late submissions are possible for the core YC program, so fingers crossed!

If you email me at [e-mail] I can keep you updated on the situation.

Just spoke to the team at YC, they’ve extended the cut off time for us! You should be able to apply now. The deadline is 11:59pm PST, that’s tomorrow 7:59am GMT.

Let me know if you would like feedback on your answers. Happy to arrange help.
