Frequently asked questions

What is YES Accelerator?

A new program offering an exclusive, common application to famous VCs and accelerators, a hub of resources offered by the same VCs, free IP and corporate law consultation, and extended partnership through panels, tours, dinners, etc.

What does the application timeline look like?

The application never closes and is reviewed on a rolling basis by each of our partner VC firms. If they want to learn more, a member of their team will reach out directly.

Can I share these resources outside of YES?

These resources are exclusive to YES Fellows. If a non-YES Fellow submits the common application or schedules an office hours session, they will not receive a response.

Who can I contact with questions?

Reach out to Sohi Patel, YES Director of Partnerships, at (832) 702-0294 or sohi.patel@yale.edu.
