Point72 Academy Virtual Intensive

Does anyone have any knowledge on this program and if sophomores are eligible? I was curious because I know that the Academy training program is designed for juniors who would then receive full time jobs if successful. Also, does Point72 tend to hire mainly from target schools or is it diversifying its reach in recruiting? Any and all insights would be appreciated.
