        Lamba School doesn’t saddle you with loans. You only pay us back if you make over $50k a year. You pay us for a maximum of two years. You pay 17% of your salary for those two years, capped at $30k total. It’s an education, not a sentence.

        Should be pointed out that the 17% is only on the amount above 50K (I presume) and could do well with some examples. Say, at 80k you’ll pay X, at 100k you’ll pay Y

        No, it’s on the total amount. So if you’re making $100k it’s $17k/yr yr one, then $13k year two (because you hit the $30k cap)

        HOW TUITION WORKS: It's free until it doesn't need to be. You don't owe us anything until you're stable and settled, putting your Lambda education to use in your new career. Also, what you owe us depends on how well your new career pays. The better you do, the better we do!

        haha dammit i was so pleased with "It's free until it doesn't need to be" but "You get paid before we do" fits in the same narrative slot and is much better bc it's concrete rather than abstract

        You get paid before we do. You attend a 6 month course. You become an expert developer. We help you find a job. When you make more than $50k /yr, (average is XX,000), you repay us. The payment is 17% of your salary for two years. No job or under $50k? No worries, it’s free.

        If you’re making serious bank (we’ve had graduates make XXX,000), we play nice. Tuition price stops at $30k.

        Went that route once. Didn't like it. Write 4 alternatives, run a $10 campaign in FB Ads with the 4 copies. Measure the highest CTR. Pick that one.

        It *is* a little like word soup, isn't it? Just take out that section and put "(capped at 30k)" after "a percentage of their income" on the first section.
