Mesa is good in the way that they don’t claim to be competing against IIM/ISB or dissing them. It’s more around being a much more hands on ISB, specifically for the startup ecosystem.

Had attended their info session, one of the founders take them - team is not pushy so that’s good. Applications are invite only, can get invited to apply after attend only after understanding about program. Still early days but seem to have the fundamentals right - would recommend you attend Info Session and make the call for yourself :)

What personally attracted me was the team and the founding cohort, seems to be really good quality.

Was considering and curious so had attended, after 1-1 with team they recommended against applying since I was already getting an offer from a tier-1 VC fund - they recommended i take that offer instead :)

Haven’t heard of this ever. beware of edtech companies in general. they have a tendency to push unsuspecting customers into purchasing courses. you have everything to lose for in this situation, always opt for top mba programs.

Mesa is good. Good founders and the right fundamentals in terms of building an education biz. However; these are early cohorts and you’d have to take a flyer on how things evolve

I would repeat - If any functional knowledge program is without placement assistance, it might be too risky. There’s no precedence/history of these programs and it might not be perceived correctly by the employers.

At the same time, startup leadership is very context driven. Don’t know how they will justify a cohort approach.
