Flatiron School offers immersive on-campus and online programs in software engineering, data science, cybersecurity, and product design (UX/UI design). Flatiron School’s immersive courses aim to launch students into fulfilling careers by providing a robust career services framework and dedicated one-on-one coaching post graduation that is included as an added value with the tuition.
The application process asks prospective students to share a bit about themselves and what is driving them to start a career. The process includes speaking with an Admissions representative in a non-technical interview to allow for the opportunity to get to know each other better in a friendly conversation. Applicants will also need to complete a 15-minute critical thinking and problem-solving assessment afterwards. Applicants will receive an acceptance decision from Admissions within 4 business days of completing the assessment.
Flatiron School’s Career Services team provides weekly 1:1 career coaching sessions, mock interviews, and access to an extensive employer network to help students launch fulfilling careers in tech after graduation.
Flatiron School powers the Access Scholarship which invested $1.5 million into the futures of more than 500 students across all of Flatiron School’s campuses and online courses in 2020. The Access Scholarship opens doors for aspiring innovators who may have experienced barriers to education. To build a more diverse and inclusive tech community, Flatiron School has awarded over $10 million in scholarships for women, minorities, veterans, and other underrepresented groups in tech.
Flatiron School was one of the first bootcamps in the industry and a pioneer in providing 3rd party examined job placement reports. Read their full independently-examined jobs reports at: https://flatironschool.com/jobs-reports/
I am very thankful for the material I learned and the people I met at Flatiron. I attended Flatiron from Jan 2016 - April 2016 thanks to the NYC Tech Talent Pipeline Mobile Dev Corps Scholarship. The material I learned over those 4-months really changed my life and is the reason I am a developer now.

Flatiron Experience:
I would say my memories of Flatiron are mostly positive, with a few less positive memories peppered in. The curriculum was challenging, but not overwhelmingly so. My instructor at the time was a bit of a rambler and the lectures often took longer than they should have, but he was thorough and smart and very helpful. The TA's were also very helpful, though sometimes they were swamped with other students questions and you'd be left without any way to proceed. Final projects were definitly a bit of a roller-coaster. It would have been great to have more guidance and mentorship - for my cohort, each team had a mentor from a specific company and we were encouraged to build something somewhat related to that company. My team was able to make something, but it took an extra week because we really had no idea how to plan out our work or how to scope it or delegate tasks. There really was not enough guidance on the how. But we learned a lot and ended up with something we were able to show at interviews that was in the App Store.
Career services:
They're really smart and kind and I cannot say anything bad about them. They were responsive to all of my emails and always calmed me down when I was stressed about the job hunt. To this day, they email me to check in on me and I could not appreciat them enough.
Everyone at Flatiron is kind and it feels like they are invested in your success. They provide you with the materials to change your career, but you are responsible for putting in the work. I really didn't believe that you could become a developer after 3 months but Flatiron provides a strong foundation for begining your career and when you go out and get a job, you have enough knowledge to fill in the gaps.
