Good value
I chose Nucamp because the price was way lower and the courses were shorter than any other bootcamp I could find that offers similar curricula AND because the reviews were pretty good. The only sort of negatives I could find in the reviews were that Nucamp is not the place for you if you aren't very driven, disciplined, or good at supplementing your education outside of class. I agree with this assessment.

I agree with this assessment.
A negative I have found is that it appears Nucamp may be an instructor factory in that many of their instructors were hired after completing Nucamp courses with no other experience in coding. This makes me question the integrity of the program, but my instructors at least have had legitimate experience in the field and have been very competent. - NemoJul 19, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

The content is good and the workshop (zoom call with other class students) at the end of the week makes a difference. Since it is part time, we have to spend a lof of time on our own researching.

It's perfect for someone who is still working at a full-time job. I really enjoy so far following the course. The content is good and the workshop (zoom call with other class students) at the end of the week makes a difference. Since it is part time, we have to spend a lof of time on our own researching. The content alone is not enough and we do need to learn from other sources. The support from the instructor is ok, they are available two times a week or more for the final week. The instructors are knowledgeable. It would be even better to have more time with them, either individually or with the class, but that's probably because it's part time only. After 5 weeks of learning, I definitely acquired a lof of knowledge I didn't have before, however it will take way more than that to be able to build something concrete. But the life of a programmer is all about practicing, learning and searching every day. I'm looking forward to that. - MarioSE • Applicant • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • OnlineJun 27, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Having access to instructors and class/coursemates is a huge benefit. My confidence level has greatly improved as I can now program like never before.

Great Python!
The intro to Python course, which is one third of the backend bootcamp, was very inclusive; got a lot of great insight to move forward with the language in the future. Our instrucdtor was great, providing a general direction for future studies that far exceeded the course material alone. I am used to C based languages, but was a decade out of practice and had no experience with Python; so my expectations were a bit low.

I am used to C based languages, but was a decade out of practice and had no experience with Python; so my expectations were a bit low. After the 5 weeks, I am now feeling very confident with the language, and though I still need a quite bit of work, I was able to integrate a great deal more than I thoguht was possible in the short amount of time. Especially surprising was the instructors ability to get us up on OOP practices and common coding conventions. These camps are largely what you put into them, but NuCamp offers a great deal for a very reasonable price!

My Nucamp experience was a positive one. I knew about Nucamp for a while but was hesitant to enroll but after taking their Fundamentals Course I feel this is what I want to do.
The flexibility of the course made it easy for me, their workshops were really fun because you get to meet your fellow students and with the Instructor there also to help when we had questions. Oh and cant forget about the affordability of it all, if anyone is thinking about signing up do it!

If you use the loan options, they will purposefully overcharge you, hoping that you aren't paying attention to the loan disbursement amount. But I was paying attention. I registered for the Complete Software Engineering boot camp on April 28, 2022, well before the early bird deadline. Course price was $4268. They charged $4868. When I asked about this, they claimed I didn't qualify for the early bird discount because I used the loan options. This is written nowhere in the website or enrollment agreement. No disclosure. I complained to the owner, and he said I was overcharged because the price increased in June. June? I enrolled in APRIL! I called him and his staff out on their lies and thievery, so they cancelled my enrollment. Either they did this because I'm black, or they do it to everyone. Either way, these people lack character and integrity. I'd advise everyone to stay away.Stephanie of Nucamp
Student Administration
Jun 14, 2022
The student registered in April for a series of 4 bootcamps, starting respectively on May 16th 2022, June 27th 2022, October 17th 2022, and April 17th 2023.
The tuition for the bootcamps starting in June 2022 and later had been increased, and the student loan amount reflected this increase.
The student violated our code of conduct while communicating with our staff. As a result and hoping to part ways on favorable terms we offered the student to complete the first bootcamp for free, and to refund all monies paid, which we did.
