This unique program, which is ranked among the top 10 entrepreneurship programs in the US, combines the best parts of a startup accelerator and a graduate business-degree program along with one-on-one mentoring and access to funding to help entrepreneurs advance their startups.

Throughout the program, students work to apply what they are learning in class to grow their company. All the deliverables relate to the company and no exams, no theses, and no hypothetical case studies are required.

According to Isaac, the program is also designed to enable students work full-time on their startup at the same time.

"I'm also grateful to Generation Africa and GoGettaz through whom this opportunity and scholarship came, and to my professors, who recommended me and considered me a great candidate for this programme," he added.
