The popular streamer’s creator program is back and here’s what applicants need to know
Kai Cenat is bringing back Streamer University in 2026, and applications are open. The multi-day event is designed for aspiring and growing content creators who want to learn from experienced professionals across streaming’s most popular categories.
What Streamer University is
The program gives creators access to hands-on workshops, collaborative content opportunities and networking with established names in the space. Categories include gaming, IRL and Just Chatting. It is less of a conference and more of an immersive learning environment built specifically for people serious about growing their presence online.
How to apply
Applications are submitted through the official Streamer University website. Applicants choose one of three roles: student, professor or club director. Students are aspiring or developing creators. Professors are experienced creators willing to teach. Club directors are streamers who lead groups and organize activities.
Every application requires a video between one and three minutes long. The video should reflect personality, content style and the applicant’s reason for wanting to attend. Once submitted, applications cannot be edited, so reviewing everything carefully before finalizing is important.
Eligibility
Applicants must be at least 18 years old and authorized to travel within or to the United States during the event. At least one active social media account is required for identity verification and content review.
Can small streamers apply?
Yes. Follower count is not the primary consideration. The selection process weighs passion, creativity and potential, which means creators at any stage can be considered. A smaller channel with strong, authentic content has just as real a shot as a larger one.
What happens after you apply
Accepted applicants will receive an email with next steps and additional event details. The specific location and dates for 2026 have not been announced yet. That information will be shared directly with those who are accepted.
For creators looking for a structured way to level up, Streamer University is one of the more accessible opportunities in the space right now.
