Student startups raising funds?
Hi all, This one’s specifically for those who are in college or graduated <2 years max. If you’re building/brainstorming/raising funds or doing anything related to a startup - pls hit me up. We’re looking to fund student founders with a very small cheque size. Thanks! PS - Student founders/recent grads only,pls. Thx.

Is this GradCapital? If yes, then I would not suggest them.

Why? Please elaborate.

Was ghosted without any feedback despite the mail saying that they would not ghost anyone. Some folks I was speaking to from large early stage funds didn't have much to say about them so don't know if that's a good sign or not.
Plus, just a personal opinion of mine which I agree most won't share is that it doesn't feel nice when approaching a VC feels like a job application. You have to fill out a form then have an interview and what not.
Have been able to get great feedback through cold mails from people at large VC funds/entrepreneurs when we just wanted feedback on our idea. Wish it was more common to just get on a short 20min call rather than have to compete in a pitching competition.

Just curious, why students or recently grad only?

It’s a student focused fund.
Interested, and I fit the criteria too. The only question is how small is cheque size?
