I started the 6 month GW Analytics Bootcamp in September, 2019. This is a part-time bootcamp with two classes after work and one on Saturday. Many comparable bootcamps like Flatiron and Galvanize are only full-time so one of the immeadiate benefits of GW's is getting to keep your job.
Obvisously, after working 8 hour days though, it is crucial to have an instructor with a lot of energy that can keep you going. Not only is my instructor at GW extremely passionate about teaching us...

Obvisously, after working 8 hour days though, it is crucial to have an instructor with a lot of energy that can keep you going. Not only is my instructor at GW extremely passionate about teaching us, he actively changes the cirriculumn to provide us with the most sought after skills in the job market today.
I beleive that the curriculum is second to none. While Galvanize and Flatiron will prepare you to be a Data Scientist, the GW bootcamp will prepare you to be a Data Scientist, Data Engineer, Software Engineer and SQL developer.
And, GW's program is nearly half of the cost.

I didn’t want to write this review at first but then I thought it was necessary because it can help other people and because this place is overrated by fake good reviews or reviews by people who used to work here.
When the class started our instructor left after the first week. Then we got a new one who didn’t seem to be knowledgeable at all and was a really bad teacher who was only “reading” the code without explaining how it was written and how to write it. ...
I didn’t want to write this review at first but then I thought it was necessary because it can help other people and because this place is overrated by fake good reviews or reviews by people who used to work here.
When the class started our instructor left after the first week. Then we got a new one who didn’t seem to be knowledgeable at all and was a really bad teacher who was only “reading” the code without explaining how it was written and how to write it. So the only help we would get was by Technical Assistants( who were really awesome guys).
Then in a month our instructor got fired. Then we got a new one once again who finally seemed to be an expert in the topic but unfortunately the course was almost over by that time already.
After the course ended we were supposed to get our certificates mailed to us but that never happened. We were never given them either. So in order to get mine I had to write constantly to Student Success Manager, Gemini S. who promised me to mail it herself and never did and blamed everything on GWU issues and kept lying to me about when it would be mailed or what’s happening with it( which is ridiculous and I can’t believe it myself still ). It’s been 4 months since graduation and me and other students still don’t have their certificates. After paying 11k$ for this course you expect the certificate to get delivered to you at least or be handed personally on the graduation day without having to chase it.
To sum everything up, I can say that I was very disappointed with GWU Coding Bootcamp overall because I thought that the name of this school at least means quality of education and work efficiency but that’s just a fancy name.
The course itself is very intense and 3 months is not enough to cover this giant amount of information especially with bad instructors. Be ready to study a lot on your own and get a huge amount of stress. Career services are somewhat helpful. Also don’t believe the person in charge of this course as things he told me to convince me to take it were not relevant to the reality ( the data about students after they graduate like their employment rates etc). Simply save your money and find same courses online.

I was very hesitant to write this review, however I feel as though I owe it to future students to paint an accurate picture of the GW Boot Camp Experience. I tried discussing my concerns with the "Student Success Manager", but unfortunately my several emails went unanswered. Seeing the long, buzzword-filled responses to other reviews, it certainly appears that GW (Trilogy) cares far more about the outward appearance of this boot camp than the experience of current students.

Seeing the long, buzzword-filled responses to other reviews, it certainly appears that GW (Trilogy) cares far more about the outward appearance of this boot camp than the experience of current students.
As mentioned in other reviews, this is a "GW Bootcamp" only in the sense of the classroom location. The course is run through Trilogy, and simply put this is primarily a business, not a school. Recruiters will rush you through the signup process as soon as you apply, with sensationalized messages telling you how quickly capacity is filling up. The "admission exam" is a joke - 20, easily-found multiple-choice questions. As you may expect, this leads to a wide range of experience across the students. If you have no coding experience, unless you are highly motivated to learn I would not recommend this course. I feel that advertising this course as "no coding experience necessary" sets all parties up for failure. I will say the subject matter was generally interesting and relevant, and many topics are covered. I found the instructor(s) and TA's extremely intelligent and helpful - they are there because they love the technology and it shows. I unfortunately had to include "instructor(s)" as our primary instructor allegedly resigned - it's pretty apparent that the administration forced him out, but that is only my speculation. I completely disagree with this decision - my understanding is students thought he was moving too quickly and were frustrated. Again, I chalk this up to Trilogy falsely advertising the starting expectations and signing anyone who has $10K up for the course. Regardless, their decision was to terminate the relationship and add more confusion to the class. This confusion led to us spending 45 minutes learning R, while we had 5 weeks committed to learning web dash-boarding. I really did not want to write this review, but this seems to be the only way to get a response from Trilogy administration. If you are a prospective student or TA, I would look elsewhere before registering - you are far less important the moment your check clears.Boot Camp Team of GW Boot Camps

You will not regret this boot camp. After looking into a few of the other options around DC its clear that GW is the best. The support you receive from this program is first class. You learn everything you need to advance your career or like me switch your career completely. You have to work hard but it pays off in the end.

Overall, a great course for introducing a lot of various technologies quickly. The group projects were especially invaluable to see all of these resources interact and get a glimpse of what the working dynamics would be like on a team at a company. Great administrative and career services support!

I graduated from the Full Stack Web Developmnet program, and it was a great experience. I gained valuable skills and knowledge that are highly transferable in the workplace. I like to thank the Student success manager(Ms.Gemini Sanford) for the tremendous help she has given me over the past few weeks.

I just graduated from the GW Data Analytics program, and I had the best experience ever! I learned so much in the program, gained valuable coding skills, and developed a great portfolio that I can showcase in applying for new jobs. Our instructor Dartanion was one of the most passionate, motivating and enthusiastic teachers I’ve ever had. He made the class so enjoyable, and offered help outside of class whenever needed. I highly recommend this program!

I am currently enrolled in the George Washington University Boot Camp for Full Stack Development as a part time student, and I expect to complete the course in May 2019. So far it has been a very positive experience for me. I entered this program with no prior coding experience. At first I found this course daunting and the wide scope of subject material intimidating. As I have progressed I have found that it is not that intimidating. The pace of the course is fast but it is very easy to measure your improvement and development. From day one until now, about a third of the course, I have made very measurable progress. The instructor, Mr. Ranjan Biswas, is very knowledgable and engaging. The teacher aids that attend class are very helpful and offer first hand knowledge as former students. There are times that I have wondered whether this was the right choice for me and if I will be able to succeed in the field, but this course is what you make it. Your input determines your output. Due to the fast nature of the class and wide scope of material you will have to put in many hours learning outside of class and doing homework. For people looking to make a career change and learn a new skill, I fully recommend this class.

The Good:
The curriculum The GWbootcamp offers is a solid, self-paced course broken up by subject to make sure you fully understand each skill before moving to the next. The course will cover the fundamentals of front-end, how to use file sharing and version control such as Github to its work environment potential, and ends with covering in depth on a backend language.

The instructors are THE best resource a bootcamp can offer. They are knowledgeable and almost always available to help you when you have questions. But not only that, they do not just tell you the answer, instead help you work through the issue. This little piece is what creates good developers as you learn the skill of active problem-solving.
Assignments on a weekly bases take your level to the next step, Ranjan makes sure that every student is giving his best. The whole team is awesome they all work unstoppably to make sure all students land their dream jobs in a timely manner also Kyle will help and keep pushing you till the end.
The Bad:
I cannot think of any.
Conclusion:
I really do recommend this bootcamp, and any faults that it has are minor and can be overlooked. Especially with its extracurricular resources like the instructors and mentors. While they don't guarantee a job, they do give you all the tools you'll ever need and more to land a position if you are committed.

The George Washington University Full-Stack Bootcamp challenged and prepared me to succeed in the ever-changing tech industry. We not only learned the most relevent and used technologies, but the skills to continue on and be lifelong learners. We were pushed hard with difficult challenges, which were rewarding when completed. The group projects allowed us to not only be creative and come up with our own ideas, but also let us practice working on teams in an Agile-like way. The instructional staff was supportive, our TAs would help us at any hour of the day and be there in class to answer questions and give suggestions. The class instructor was very knowledgable and helped guide the class towards finding the answer, rather than just outright telling us, giving us more opportunity to learn the content of the class. Career services routinely check in to help with any questions or advice we may need through our job search. Three months after graduating I am still having regular "check-in" calls with my career services advisor. I have already recommended this class to a handful of people, some of whom have already signed up for the next cohort. If you are in the DC area and are searching for the next step in your career, or even a complete career change, I could not recommend this enough.
