How to Pay Your Coding Bootcamp Tuition
Our tuition is $16,500 with various financing and scholarship options.
A coding bootcamp can set you up for a future-proof career in a high-paying job. But, not just any bootcamp. At Tech Elevator, student success is our top priority. Tuition includes expertly-curated pre-work, our full-stack technical curriculum (that's 800 hours of coding), and the career support program (Pathway Program) that runs in tandem (~45 hours of coaching). We also provide students with a laptop to use for the duration of the program. Plus, as a student, you get lifelong access to a community of instructors, academic fellows, alumni working in tech, and hundreds of hiring partners.
We have placed more than 2,600 graduates with 750+ hiring partners nationwide. That's an estimated $1.3 million lift in lifetime earnings for each individual graduate, and in aggregate, $2.6 billion more in lifetime earnings! Your career reinvention is just weeks away. Explore our financing options below.
Disclaimer: This tuition applies to all student bootcamp programs except those in Texas.
PAY MONTHLY
Financing
Low payments averaging $338 per month make Tech Elevator a smart option for many students looking to build skills then reach their full potential in a new higher paying position. We offer options from Sallie Mae and Ascent to finance your loans over time.
WORKFORCE INNOVATION & OPPORTUNITY ACT
Receive Local Grants to Support Your Education
In partnership with local workforce development boards, Tech Elevator is an Eligible Training Provider in the states of Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania underneath the Workforce Innovation & Opportunity Act, which authorizes and funds employment and training programs in the United States.
SCHOLARSHIPS
Cover more than $13,000 of your tuition.
Education should be a right, not a privilege. We believe that the natural aptitude for learning to code is distributed evenly throughout the population, but access to opportunity is not. We initiated our Represent Tech Scholarship to identify and elevate future diverse leaders in tech. With this scholarship, Tech Elevator has committed over $1M to provide access to underrepresented groups with a quality tech education and a future in the world of tech.

What types of lenders do you work with?
We’re proud to work with lenders who offer financing options for both tuition and cost of living. Check out details about our partners like Sallie Mae, Ascent and HFLA on this page.

When should I apply for a loan and how long will it take to be approved?
While it is recommended you research potential financing options after you apply to Tech Elevator, students should not apply for a loan until they have been accepted and enrolled in a Tech Elevator cohort.
Our two most popular loan providers are Sallie Mae and Ascent. Applications for loans from Sallie Mae and Ascent can be completed and approved within 30 minutes if you do not use a cosigner. If you apply for a loan with a cosigner, it may extend the approval process by a few weeks. Please touch base with the loan provider on estimated times for approval with a cosigner as it may vary.
The application for Sallie Mae opens 300 days prior to the start of the cohort, while the application for Ascent opens 90 days before the cohort starts. Please do not apply until you have been accepted into the program.

Upon receiving each of the payments, Tech Elevator will send you a check for your cost of living funds either in person at your campus or via mail. Each of the two cost of living disbursements will be 50% of the total amount.
