      We're going to try an experiment. Our full iOS + Computer Science course (30 weeks) + a MacBook you can keep + free housing in San Francisco for the full 30 weeks. You pay $0 until you're making $50k+, then 17% of salary for 3 years, capped at $40k. We'll select 10 students.

      Any chance of remote/online courses in the future? Older students will have family/kids. 30 weeks is a long time to be away.

      Then why the 30 week housing in SF?

      Because paying for housing for 30 weeks without a full time income is hard to do

      True. Im looking through a 40 year old lens rather than a 25 year old one. Where can i see the pricing or payback structure?

      Option 1: $20k upfront Option 2: $0 until you’re making $50k+, then 17% of salary for 2 years, capped at $30k

          In your fist tweet you said 3 year’s capped at $40k. Which is correct?

          Depends on if you’re living in our housing and getting a free computer or not

          Ah gotcha! Very cool. I hope the experiment goes well! I’m very intrigued by this school structure. I think this could very well be the future of education!

          I really like what you are doing for higher ed. Its time to change things. The impeding student loan crisis is real and its going to make the housing crisis look like a market correction.
