Rithm School offers a full-stack web development course that is full-time, remote and lasts 4 months. While Rithm School is based in San Francisco, our classes are currently held remotely.
The Rithm School curriculum is centered around JavaScript and Python, and also covers in-demand topics like React, TypeScript, Node, Flask, Express, computer science fundamentals, and more. Students get hands-on support and receive a high-touch education and real world project experience they need to become successful software engineers. Rithm School was founded to fill a gap in the bootcamp industry: classes are capped at just 20 students, so students get one-on-one learning with instructors who are experienced software engineers and educators.
The admissions process consists of an online application, an informational call with the admissions team, a technical assessment, and a combined behavioral and technical interview. Rithm School provides free resources and events to help learners become interview-ready, as well as interactive support and feedback through their Slack channel.
The final weeks of Rithm School consist of a real-world project in a live codebase, as well as preparation for technical and behavioral job interviews. Students also receive one-on-one mentorship from a career coach who will help prepare them for each stage of the job search. This support lasts for the rest of their career.
In short, my return was certainly worth the cost of admission - especially with the deferred tuition model. In four months, I went from not knowing a lick of JavaScript, to getting my Pull Requests accepted on production codebases with React Native advanced patterns. Technical expertise isn't the only thing I got from Rithm. They also taught me invaluable interprersonal skills as well as strategies for navigating the jobseeking process.

In short, my return was certainly worth the cost of admission - especially with the deferred tuition model. In four months, I went from not knowing a lick of JavaScript, to getting my Pull Requests accepted on production codebases with React Native advanced patterns. Technical expertise isn't the only thing I got from Rithm. They also taught me invaluable interprersonal skills as well as strategies for navigating the jobseeking process. I even got a job within the first few weeks of graduating by using one of my Rithm connections.
In more depth, the small class sizes made the instructors incredibly available - all of whom are skilled software engineers. With their varied expertise, I could get all of my questions addressed - no matter how deep I went down the rabbit hole. If I wanted to know why 'with' blocks function the way they do in Python, I could ask the guy who contributed to the Python source code. If I wanted to know about NP-Complete and how that relates to Big O, I could ask the one with a Mathematics pHD. Even if I wanted to know why "{ } + [ ]" returned 0 but "[ ] + { }" returned "[object Object]" in JavaScript, I could get my questions answered.
Their curriculum is always being updated on multiple levels. By asking for data from recent graduates about their job hunting experience, they can focus on relevant technologies while relegating less important topics to footnotes or Further Study. Additionally, every lecture has an option for feedback, and they definitely pay attention; the Callback Pattern exercise was substantially rewritten after they processed our feedback.
Their support continues even after graduation. They keep office hours every week specifically for alumni and assist in fine tuning the job search for best results. They're really looking out for their students' best interests.
Lastly, they understand the importance of work-life balance. The assessments are just challenging enough to solidify the lessons learned throughout the week. Even though the core requirements are designed to be completed in a reasonable amount of time, reach goals are included as well for the ambitious student. They also throw parties for significant curriculum achievements - such as completing your first sprint! There's often a group of people staying around after class to play a few board games. Although the schedule quite rigorous and challenging, the culture really makes it manageable.
All in all, an incredible experience
Bonus: The company dog is great, and they let me bring my own well-behaved therapy dog to class!
