Two cohorts, 344 graduates, and 372 new programs on mainnet
1,475
developers onboarded to Solana in a year, free
School of Solana is free, runs twice a year, and is deliberately hard. In 2025 its two cohorts drew 2,628 applicants, graduated 344 people, and onboarded 1,475 developers to Solana code. Between them, graduates created 372 new Solana program repositories.
Graduates leave with an on-chain credential and a program they built themselves. It is the least glamorous kind of impact work and probably the most durable: the pipeline that makes everything else on this page possible.
