Can anyone add any information on what the "Advisor Track" is for Startup School? I was just accepted, but I only see Founder Track in past applications, so not sure what Advisor Track means or the differenct if any.
Thanks!

#2Was also accepted into the same Track. 25 companies per track it seems, there are probably many cohorts.

In addition to having full access to all the lectures and class office hours, you will also:
- Be assigned an advisor and join their group of companies. Advisors are members of the YC alumni network.
- Have virtual advisory sessions, in the form of Group Office Hours, every week via online video.
- Have access to a community of international founders through the Startup School forum.
- Be responsible for updating your Advisor on your progress once a week.
- You must submit at least 9 out of your 10 weekly updates and attend 9 out of 10 group office hour sessions.
- Upon successful completion, you will receive a certificate of completion and the opportunity to share what you're working on with the public.
- 100 startups that complete the course will be chosen to receive $10K in equity-free funding.

Although you are not in the Advisor Track, you have, in fact, been accepted to audit Startup School and will have access to all of the content just as soon as it is made available.
Again, we regret having made this error and raised your expectations unnecessarily. We hope you continue working on your startup and that Startup School is a huge help."

#5I hope yours was not sent by mistake because I just got another email saying my application wasnt actually accepted.
Which I understand because I was surprised to be accepted since our demo is passport protected and they could not have seen what is it that we have built so far.
