I am a Veteran and once I realized that the GI bill would cover the tuition I was sold. I am 41yo and in the middle of a career change and for the first time, in a long time, I feel I finally have a skill I can use for the rest of my life. The level of instruction and support Code Fellows offers is un-matched in anything I have seen before. The instructors, TA’s and Students are amongst some of the most inclusive people I have been around. I have been in class with everyone from Helicopter Pilots to Hairdressers and everyone has been great! After 6 months I have made lifelong friends and look forward to the next chapter.

What ...This school provides a 5 star level of learning to become a full fledged software engineer right off the bat. However, what sets them apart from other curriculums Ive seen is they train students to enter the job market firing on all cylinders as well. What I mean by that is you will not only be a competent programmer with tools to discover and learn for months to come after, but they also set you up to get hired. Breaking into this industry is difficult and comes with plenty of "nos" but codefellows has a career coaching process while youre learning to refine your interview skills, resume, and networking which is essential to landing that first job. Also, the Data structures and algorithms part of their curriculum is unmatched. You cant expect to get through a round of interviews with out proving yourself in front of someone and Codefellows sets you up for that really well by training you through timed simulated mock tech interviews. Couldnt praise them more!Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Through the six month program, I learned more valuable material than I did in a four year college. For people new to the tech world like myself, getting through the course was not an easy task. The program was a gruelling process, filled with sleepless nights and frustration, but the light at the end of the tunnel is well worth it. My understanding and progression of software development was exponential and I am eager to keep learning more. When the lecture was over, we went straight into the lab work where TAs and instructors will assist you with any assignments you are having trouble with or questions you had. It didn't matter if the question was easy or hard to answer, the Code Fellows instructional staff stood by you till you had a better understanding of the topic. Code Fellows not only teaches you about software development, but also the requirements needed to land that job position. During their career coaching sessions, you will be updating your resume to the level of their requirements, connecting you with developers from various companies and preparing you for any situation during a tech interview. Even after graduating from the program, Code Fellows has a career accelerated option where they support you and connect you to multiple tech companies to help guide through the struggles of finding the job. The only thing that would have made the experience better is if we could have gone into the Code Fellows campus. Though given the current COVID pandemic situation and everything needing to be remote, Code Fellows handled the situation very well with daily zoom lectures and provided a virtual compass where we worked on lab assignments. If I had the money and time to take another Code Fellows course, I would take it.Overall5.0Curriculum4.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

I attended an info session and learned that this is a real technologist institute, with a large, dedicated instructional team. The leaders of this organization are well connected at the Big Four and they have a profound understanding of what they're looking for in candidates these days. The game has changed and CodeFellows is leading the charge... in March 2020 I did not know what a boolean was. By August 14th, I was on a team presenting presenting our first collaboration on a Full-Stack Application built with React, MongoDB, Socket.io, and many other exciting, contemporary technologies.
If you're brave and willing, these folks will take good care of you and help you discover, then channel your inner software engineer. After you've learned the skills, it's not over! They'll almost hold your hand and teach you how to secure gainful employment in your software area of interest, through every step of the process.
I've done my research and I have not yet encountered a coding school that does it all. They're even pandemic-proof! The level of support and aiding technologies available to students did not diminish catastrophically when COVID-19 hit. These folks pulled it together and were able to continue the same great curriculum and tutoring with few limitations... other schools nearly went out of business!
Got some solid experience and serious work ethic, but feel obsolete? Looking to change your mind, and consequently your life for the better?
