How we evaluate applicants
- All applications are assigned to a review team with relevant expertise. Each reviewer independently evaluates the application using a standardized 5-question rubric.
- The reviewers’ responses are compiled, and any large discrepancies are discussed.
- Based on the collective responses of the reviewers, a select group of applicants are invited to virtually pitch their presentation and answer questions from the review team. These pitches are scored using a standardized rubric.
- The review team meets a final time to discuss the pitch scoring and select the teams who will join the next cohort.
