CYAF gives students the clarity, structure, and confidence they need before entering university. You'll learn how business programs actually work, what top students do to secure internships, how to network effectively, and how to build a professional brand. The program demystifies the recruiting process, teaches you the analytical and communication skills employers value, and equips you with a concrete execution plan for your first year of university. By the end, you'll have real deliverables (stock pitch, case competition experience, resume toolkit), actionable strategies, and the mindset to hit the ground running.

Not at all. While we cover finance and consulting, the program is broad and intentionally builds transferable skills that apply across all business careers. Whether you're passionate about marketing, entrepreneurship, tech, accounting, or any other business path, CYAF equips you with the communication, analytical thinking, networking, and professional development skills to succeed.

Not at all. Grade 10-11 is the most important time to start learning and preparing for students who are eager to succeed. We do not accept Grade 9 students.

CYAF is fully designed around making students succeed in personal and professional development while learning the blueprint to success in business. This isn't surface-level stuff — it's structured, coached, and outcome-focused with real deliverables and direct feedback. You'll learn from mentors who have been through the recruiting process at elite schools, clubs, and jobs, and can show you exactly what works.

The fellowship is specifically designed for Canadian students preparing for Canadian business programs. However, we may consider exceptional international applicants planning to apply to Canadian universities.

The program runs as 1-2 live sessions/week, with practice and deliverables. Students can keep up alongside school without overload or any exam conflicts. We recommend ~4 hours/week.

For each session, most, if not all team members (Jeremaiah, Leo, and Sam) will be on the call. We also have our Teaching Assistant team help with building curriculum, planning, and moderating.

No. We believe school comes first. The fellowship is structured around a predictable weekly schedule with clear expectations, so students can plan ahead and stay on top of school. We keep work focused on high-value deliverables and we do not assign busywork. If a student has a heavy week at school, we can adjust pacing and priorities so academics stay first.
