  • Leslie eLab Fall FAQs

    Will the Leslie eLab reopen in the Spring '22 semester?

    • We don't know yet, but we sure hope so! We are following the University's guidance.

    Will Startup School, Startup Bootcamps, Startup Sprints and other programs still occur on schedule?

    • Yes. For now, we will conduct most programs and events virtually since we are unable to grant non-NYU & alumni access to the Leslie eLab. We will communicate very clearly whether a program or event is conducted in-person. All coaching sessions will also take place virtually using Zoom, a video conferencing service that all NYU students, faculty, and staff have free access to. There is also a free version non-NYU personnel may use to participate. Program facilitators will contact registered participants with instructions to attend each event or program virtually.

    Will 1:1 coaching appointments still take place?

      • Yes. All coaching appointments will be honored remotely. Instructions and links to create your own NYU Zoom account, as well as how to download and configure the software can be found here.

    How can I sign up for future events and coaching?

    Where can I learn more about the latest NYU developments about Coronavirus/COVID-19?
