One of the biggest growth problems I'm facing at @LambdaSchool is convincing people this is in fact not a scam, and that we really produce great junior engineers.pic.twitter.com/hqrYEv1sND
CEO @LambdaSchool (YC S17): A CS education that's free until you get a job. I have made remarks that I do not agree with.

Does it really matter? Its the students that you have that matter, not the ones that you don't right? This won't matter due to word of mouth in 1-2 years
Once your first couple batches of students get out, you could do extensive data collection and video testimonials on their experience and results. I imagine that you have a ton of inbound interest regardless of this issue anyways?
We do get a lot of applications on a daily basis, but around 50% of those applications get disqualified during the application process due to things like not being able to commit to full-time, not being 18, or not being able to legally work in the US.
So, of the applications that make it through, are they still not filling your maximum class/cohort capacity?
Once we hire 3x as many instructors and TAs we can add 3x as many students ;)
