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.

After completing a number of introductory coding classes, a Flatiron alum recommended I try the Bootcamp Prep course that Flatiron offers.

After completing a number of introductory coding classes, a Flatiron alum recommended I try the Bootcamp Prep course that Flatiron offers. The course was more challenging than Codecademy and Udemy since it really requires you to immediately reinforce each lesson by applying it to a mock project (which Flatiron calls labs). Unlike Hack Reactor's prep course, however, Flatiron's "Ask a Question" feature ensured there was always someone to give you a hand when you got stuck and needed a little guidance. Their "Technical Coaches" replied within a few minutes and helped me through problems without giving me the answer. Not only did this allow me to learn more in less time, but it also let me zero in on concepts I didn't completely understand and correct them before moving on to the next section.
Part of what made the course so effective (and challenging) for me was Flatiron's use of professional tools such as Github and the IDE to teach. Although it was nice when Codecademy would tell me exactly where my syntax was wrong, I found myself becoming much more efficient and detail-focused when using the Learn IDE since it forced me to search my own code for mistakes. The lessons themselves were, for the most part, thorough. There were a few instances when I had to consult Flatiron's Javascript/Ruby Fundamentals course (also free, and slightly more comprehensive than the bootcamp prep) for added explanation or clarification on a topic. There is a coding project at the end of each Intro course (one for JS and one for Ruby) which acts as a sort of cumulative test for everything you learned while allowing you to create a program of your own!
By the time I had completed the course, I felt prepared for the coding challenges and technical interviews in several bootcamps' admissions processes. I was accepted to all bootcamps I applied to, and ended up choosing Flatiron since their teaching methods were so effective and community was so helpful. I very highly recommend you try their bootcamp prep course and experience it for yourself.
