Why We Cap Cohort Sizes at Twelve

Larger cohorts look efficient on spreadsheets but compress mentor feedback below useful depth. For portfolio reviews and mock interviews, we keep groups at twelve so each person receives written notes within the session week.

Admissions publishes seat counts openly on the pricing page. When a track fills, waitlist participants get the next start date rather than overflow rooms without mentors.

This is a deliberate trade-off: we turn away revenue to keep review quality stable. Alumni surveys cite small-group critiques as the most cited positive—ahead of slide quality.

If you need enterprise upskilling for thirty or more, we run a separate corporate format with additional mentors contracted per engagement.
