EVE University is a neutral corporation which focuses on training new players to EVE Online on various aspects of the game. We are happy for members to join our corporation, learn what they want to and then leave, which also means we are happy for other corporations to send their potential newbros to us to get some training before joining their corporation.

What corporations is this open to?

As EVE University is a neutral training corp we do not have any preferred corporations. We are happy to accept players referred by any corporation in the game, and we do not require any payment or diplomatic changes on the part of the referring corporation.


What do we expect from applicants?

We do not have any minimum SP requirements for applicants and we accept members on trial accounts. However, we do have some requirements of applicants before they can put in an application:

  • The applicant must be applying to join on their main character
  • The applicant must have a positive security status at the time of joining
  • The applicant's character name and bio must be suitable for a family-friendly corporation (EVE University)
  • The applicant cannot have standings with the two corporations we use for jump clones access (being Khanid Innovation or Wiyrkomi Peace Corps)
  • The applicant must have an idea of basic game mechanics e.g. undocking, warping etc. We recommend they do at least three of the career agent tutorials
  • The applicant must be willing to disclose to us their API and the API of any alts so we can carry out background checks


What can we teach them?

EVE University is a general teaching corporation, and we cover various aspects of the game, which includes (but is not restricted to): PVP, mining, mission running, industry, research, production, incursions, exploration, planetary interaction, trade and ship fitting.

We have campuses in high sec, low sec, null sec and wormhole space, to enable students to get experience in a range of different types of space.

There are a few things we cannot teach applicants, including: Piracy, faction warfare, subterfuge. Note we do not have a problem with our ex-members going on to involve themselves in these areas after they leave EVE University, but we restrict current members from these activities to preserve our neutrality. Additionally, while our members are allowed into sov nullsec we do not have a permanent presence there so this will not form a major part of our curriculum.


What is the process?

If your corporation would like to refer a potential member to EVE University, the potential member should be directed to our online application process to put in an application. They will need to follow a short application process to enable us to run background checks before they are accepted. Bear in mind with the numbers of applications we get they may be waiting around a week (or longer at busier times). It would help if the applicant states in their application which corporation they have been referred by.
