Rutgers Bootcamps are offered in collaboration with edX.
I am so thankful that I found Rutgers Coding Bootcamp. I needed a program near where I lived, from a trusted and reputable source, that allowed me to continue working. The structure of this program is ideal for those who cannot give the 60-80 hours/week required by many full-time bootcamps. Not only that, the slower pace over a 24 week program aids retention of concepts and affords time to apply new concepts creatively.

I am so thankful that I found Rutgers Coding Bootcamp. I needed a program near where I lived, from a trusted and reputable source, that allowed me to continue working. The structure of this program is ideal for those who cannot give the 60-80 hours/week required by many full-time bootcamps. Not only that, the slower pace over a 24 week program aids retention of concepts and affords time to apply new concepts creatively. I continued learning concepts that a bootcamp does not have the time to cover and explored tech outside the curriculum.
Besides ideal length and flexibility, the curriculum and instruction were very helpful. Matt Kim and Peleke Sengstacke both demonstrated strong abilities to teach, instruct, correct (where needed) and model the development process. They also brought years of experience coding in the real world that allowed us to ask all sorts of questions. I was able to see what a coder does and how they think. On top of that, they often challenged us with interview questions and taught us about algorithmsm, white-boarding, and application architecture. Together with a curriculum designed so that one could push themselves to complete more challenging tasks, I came out with a lot of confidence in my ability to code (even while recognizing that I have a lot to learn, because I saw even in them that learning never stops!). Our two TAs, Boris Yakubchik and Theory Practice, also real world developers, provided assistance and also pushed us to do harder stuff. Overall, I felt the curriculum and instruction lended themselves to learning about code and learning to code quite well.
Since this bootcamp is connected with a larger organization, Trilogy Education Services, with bootcamps and several major universities across the US, the coding community is strong and the opportunites to learn from one another are great. Pavan Katepalli is the CLO for the organization. He holds weekly training sessions and miniHackathons where I met students from other bootcamps and learned new concepts and technology outside the normal curriculum. Trilogy also provides free tutoring services for students who need assistance. I was able to begin tutoring other students while in the program and continue tutoring to this day.
Being connected with Rutgers University gives a sense of credibility to the program as well as provides connections with the Rutgers Alumni network. I can now say I am a Rutgers Alumnus, which means something, especially in NJ. Additionally, and very importantly for me, this connection helped financially since I was able to secure a low-interest rate educational loan through Sallie Mae (an option I could not find in other private bootcamps). Moreover, I was able to request some extra cash to cover the cost of a new laptop as well as other education related expenses. Honestly, this was the major deciding factor for me, before I knew anything about the program as it compared to others (which I think it compares very well looking back!).
Keep in mind, if you are considering a coding bootcamp, or even a full CS degree, becoming a web developer requires hard work and a strong commitment to continual coding. You have to push yourself and take the reigns of your education and your future. No one is out there who is just going to give you a job. This is a competative field. Rather than being discouraged by the difficulty, push yourself to learn. Let your failures drive you to excellence. Make the sacrifices necessary to learn to code well. Bootcamps, degrees, or any other form of education and self-improvement are not a panacae for your career opportunities in and of themselves. Don't put all your hopes and expectations in a bootcamp to get you a job. Rather, start coding now, add to your learning process the discipline and opportunity of a bootcamp, and continue to code and code and code. It's your hard work that will make your bootcamp experience a good one.
One of the only negatives I experienced in this program was related to career services. The bootcamp advertises a strong career placement ratio and offers career advisement services. In our case, the director of career services left about a month into the program and it took several months for the school to get back on its feet. During that time, there was a lack of communication and it was unclear exaclty what career services will do. However, they made some new hires and seem to be heading into a better direction. Still, I would like to see them be more proactive in connecting us with potential employers. With the general stigma against bootcamp grads, it would be great to know they are out there building personal relationships with employers and advocating for us and putting our work on display. Maybe this is going on behind the scenes and maybe this will get better in the future, but right now, I don't know.
Nevertheless, I still would recommend Rutgers Coding Bootcamp to anyone and I have recommended it so to friends. You willl learn how to develop full stack web applications. And you will build important relationships with other devs that will stick with you.
