CAN YOU GET THIS?
YOUR REAL ODDS
The application process is described as rigorous, with cohort selection from a global applicant pool—expect meaningful competition.
Miller Center has 500+ mentors and runs annual cohorts, but selection criteria are specific and screening is explicitly competitive. Founders not squarely focused on women's economic power or climate resilience are unlikely to advance.
WHAT IT TAKES
Check eligibility using the 2-minute quiz on their site — 5–10 minutes
Prepare application materials (business model, financials, impact focus) — 1–2 weeks
Submit application by August 31, 2026 (early) or October 16, 2026 (regular) — 1 day to submit
WORTH KNOWING
Applying by the early deadline (August 31, 2026) gets you a decision notification in late September, giving you more runway to plan; regular applicants don't hear back until November 20.
