* The practicum is launching your first product.

* The Tuesday dinners are the weekly lectures.

* The coursework is Hacker News.

* Your fraternity brothers are the YC alums

* And unlike contributions to your university’s general fund – when you invest in Y Combinator you get a return.

Wow!

And $150K is your student loan (at least for the new enrollments)

If it's not a gift and you haven't earned it, it's a loan.

Convertible notes are a type of loan -- doesnt have anything to do with "earning it"
