Exactly -- provided that: * You are willing to mentor two students * They both individually apply *and* are among the best applicants * You can find different milestones for each student, that are each verifiable by any outsider In theory, the proposals can overlap a lot, since, in theory, both students might not know of each other's. However, in this case, I recommend some prior splitting up of tasks.
