Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
20 winners. $100, 000 each. The chance to bring an idea to life. We Pseudo: $100, 000 isn't really that big of an investment, is it? Especially not for some of the ambitious projects these students are doing. If I were them I would stay in school and use Kickstarter or Indiegogo to raise the funds for my project. Depending on the idea and the presentation, they might even get more money that way while still getting a college education.
Now if it were at least a million dollar investment, that might be different. I just don't see the point in dropping out of school for this grant when getting a degree could net you a job that makes well over $100, 000 a year.

I have been looking into the fellowship for a long time. I want to apply, but I feel that I can't compete with the other fellows. I love business and technology they are both my passion, but I don't have a solid foundation like them. I can read code, but I can't program and there are some fellows that have been programming since they were 13 and making a business out of them. I only have up to 2016 to improve myself to a point where I feel that I can hold my own. I just need to focus on the basic and not try to learn everything at once.
