#12"We are deeply sorry to have to send this email, but unfortunately an error occurred in the software that triggers acceptance emails. The acceptance email was sent to you even though we are unfortunately not able to include you in the Startup School Advisor Track. 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…
Got the same. Wow.

#13See: https://www.startupschool.org/about 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…
so how many companies are actually accepted into the course?
Not sure the number was specified, but seems like >100
Since 100 will be chosen to receive the 10,000$

#20So much love for everyone who received an "accepted" email in error. Don't let it get you down.
I just got rejected with https://dependabot.com despite $6k MRR and 2,000 active users. I'm sure there are lots of other great companies in the same situation - let's keep building great things.
