The Student Enterprise Program is an education first model. StEP exists to provide undergraduate students with a hands-on entrepreneurial learning experience, and any opportunity for profit is secondary to educational value.

Businesses must be owned and operated exclusively by current Washington University undergraduate students.

Businesses may not sell a product or service that directly competes with the University or with any existing University contract.

All business owners must sign a StEP Statement of Responsibility that outlines program expectations and requirements.

All businesses must carry and provide proof of business liability insurance.

Student entrepreneurs and their associates must conduct business in a professional manner.

Businesses must complete an annual renewal process and receive approval from the StEP Advisory Board to continue operations.
