FAQ

FAQ

Will I have to be in Houston?

No!

There will be separate in-person and online groups.

Mentor office hours are online.

Is Rice Combinator highly selective?

We will accommodate as many founders as possible.

It's in our mission to support founders.

What kind of space is this hacker house?

Office apartment (no bed, no kitchen). It's a space where founders can come together, work, discuss ideas, and support one another!

I'm solo, non-technical, (and everything the startup world despises). Should I sign up?

If you have enough conviction to bet on yourself, please do!

A generation afraid to take risks is on pace to accomplish extremely little.

I'm interested in supporting RC's mission. Can I help out in any way?
