YE Academy Points – Where Participation = Venture Capital $$
Youth Entrepreneurs’ YE Academy point system rewards YE students and alumni for staying involved in the program and actively progressing the YE Mission as contributing members of society. It’s really simple. Up until the age of 22 you will earn points for participating in YE events outside the classroom that can later be translated into venture capital dollars! That’s right, the more involved you are, the more money you’ll earn to put toward your business or higher education!

How do I earn points?
Points are earned by actively attending and participating in YE events. You may be able to receive additional points by completing a survey, writing an essay, volunteering or acting as a YE advocate.
