Anyone know someone who did an M7 program to get a partner-track VC role?

I notice a lot of VC fellowships wanting MBA students. I have both MBB (1yr only lol) and PM experience and ultimately want to use that time to get into investing and maybe do entrepreneurship.

If it’s not GSB I would wait until I’m financially independent

Wondering what people think about my situation. I’ve been offered a role with a company. The job description didn’t mention college degree as a requirement. On my CV I have a section listed as “Education” and under it I have “Business Studies” with the university name and the 3 years that I attended the course (2.5 to be exact). It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.

I think I read about some kind of process where when an applicant reaches out to a current student or alum for a 1:1 and makes a good impression, the student/alum can send a message to the adcom letting them know?
