Coding Bootcamp Admissions Process

We offer both full-time and part-time online immersive bootcamps, which are great options if you prefer a remote learning experience. Our Full-Time Coding Bootcamp is 24 weeks long, while our Part-Time Coding Bootcamp is 48 weeks, excluding the job search period. Both courses feature Python, JavaScript, HTML, CSS and SQL as part of their curriculum, as well as a mastery-based learning model.

For those needing more flexibility, our part-time bootcamp allows you to keep your day job and learn to code on nights and weekends. As a graduate of either course, you'll get training you need to become a successful software engineer.

Admissions Steps

1. Application

Provide us with information about your background, why you're interested in software engineering and why you feel like App Academy is a good fit for you. The application will take about 10 minutes to complete.

2. Free Bootcamp Prep Course

Complete our 'Intro to Javascript' curriculum, which includes four technical assessments. The assessments will be on topics like Expressions, Functions & Problem Solving, Control Flow & Debugging, and Arrays & Mutability. You will have two attempts per assessment to pass.

3. Non-Technical Interview

Answer a series of questions and we'll assess your professionalism, passion for coding, resiliency and work ethic, etc. during this asynchronous online interview. Most applicants will be invited for a second interview if they do not pass on their first attempt.

4. Acceptance & Enrollment

Find out if you’ve passed the Non-Technical Interview and been accepted to App Academy. Then work with your Admissions Specialist to select a payment plan, complete your paperwork & enroll in your desired cohort.

Fast Track Admissions Process Option

We designed our Fast Track admissions process for applicants with intermediate to advanced coding experience. As part of this expedited approach, we’ll ask you to complete a Technical Interview instead of our Free Bootcamp Prep Course. You’ll also need to complete a Non-Technical Interview as well.

Interested in pursuing our Fast Track? Please contact your Admissions Specialist for more information.
