TPB: If you haven't received any notification whatsoever from VU, then you'd do well to start making other plans. Not sure what to expect if you've been waitlisted, but they're aiming for an 8-person cohort this year and have already sent out more than enough offers to make that quota.

Or maybe the intersection between people who got in and people who post here is an empty set. Idk.
