From my understanding, this decision is up to the mentors, and only Neel and John are actively planning to reduce the number of scholars. Neel will likely take on more scholars for the training phase than the research phase, and John’s scholars willl need to apply for LTFF and receive funding through LTFF before continuing. (Ryan may correct me here if I’m wrong)
John’s scholars have historically only had to seek LTFF funding for the 4-month extension program subsequent to the in-person Scholars Program. They are otherwise treated like other scholars.

Gotcha, perhaps I was anchoring on anecdotes of Neel’s recent winter stream being particularly cutthroat in terms of most people not moving on.
